This week I'm bringing you an incredible conversation with Sasha Hanway, a certified personal trainer, yoga teacher, breathwork and meditation coach, and holistic nutrition coach. As a former college athlete, Sasha has always loved movement, but it was a progressive strength approach combined with deep core work that truly transformed her body. She has built a program that blends mindfulness, strength, mobility and core work called Align. This is the exact workout plan I follow in the Ladder app I always talk about! In this episode, Sasha and I chat about why building muscle is critical for your mental health, the relationship between anxiety and exercise, how movement can be a tool for processing grief, the difference between the weight on the scale and your body composition, understanding protein intake requirements for optimal mental health, breaking free from restrictive mindsets, creating sustainable habits for long term success and developing a loving and trusting relationship with your body. Sasha also walks us through her Pyramid of Wellness, a framework I absolutely align with and it's exactly what I have been doing for years to maintain my anxiety free life. Your health journey isn't just a final result. It's an ongoing process. You are not the product of your health journey; your health journey is the product of you. When you learn how to fall in love with taking care of yourself, the benefits naturally follow. I hope this episode encourages you to reframe your approach to fitness, mental wellness, and self-love.

Today we're diving deep into a topic that affects so many women with anxiety... travel anxiety. Fresh from my recent trip to Hawaii and preparing for Miami and Hilton Head, I'm sharing all the tools, tips and strategies for breaking up with 4 types of travel anxiety: routine disruption anxiety, logistics anxiety, physical symptoms and health anxiety, and flying anxiety. I also share my own journey with travel anxiety and how that has evolved over the years, from having to leave a Euro-trip early due to severe anxiety, to needing a lot of supplement support during my next trip, to now being able to travel freely with minimal anxiety management tools. If you are ever in Honolulu, I cannot recommend @oneoceandiving enough! If you'd like to submit a question or topic for future episodes, click here to fill out this form!

Canadian Thanksgiving has come and gone, and with American Thanksgiving just around the corner, the holiday season is officially here! Christmas, New Year's—it's all coming up fast. In today's episode, I'm talking about how to keep your anxiety in check during this busy time of year! Every year, I get tons of questions from clients about how to stay on track with eating and lifestyle habits over the holidays. These habits have been working so well to keep their anxiety far away, but the busyness and lack of routine during this season can make it hard to stick to what's been working. If my clients are asking this every year, I'm guessing it's on your mind too! I hope this episode helps you feel more grounded and ready to enjoy the holidays, hopefully free from anxiety! As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts—send me a message on Instagram after you've listened @tay.gendron In this episode, I mentioned two apps I love: Ladder for progressive strength training and Opal, which helps you stay focused on what truly matters, making each day more intentional and productive.

Today, we're tackling a topic that impacts so many women: how to come off birth control without increasing anxiety. This episode is inspired by my own journey and the many questions I've been receiving. We'll cover questions like: Is the pill making my anxiety worse? Should you taper off birth control gradually like you would with SSRIs? Why do so many symptoms appear after stopping the pill? Is going on the pill a good idea for managing mood and anxiety, as some doctors suggest? And if you've recently stopped a progesterone-only pill to return to a natural cycle, how can you support your body while it adjusts? If you're considering transitioning off birth control or just want to understand how it can impact your mental health, this episode is for you! If you're interested in charting your cycle, check out Justisse: Chart Your Cycle. Some great books I recommend in this episode include Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler, Beyond the Pill by Jolene Brighten, and In the FLO by Alisa Vitti.

Today's episode is special because I'm doing things a bit differently and bringing on a friend who played a huge role in my journey to break free from anxiety, panic disorder, depression, and medication. Kelsi and I met when our lives looked very different. We were working at a bar and partying into the early hours nearly every night. Then, on June 6, 2013, Kelsi got sober after a life-changing experience in rehab—a turning point that deeply impacted me. About a year later, I hit my own rock bottom, and watching Kelsi transform her life helped me see that there was a way out of the cycle I was stuck in. In this episode, I'm taking you back to that messy 2011-2014 chapter of my life, when my anxiety, depression, and panic were at their peak, and I was using substances to cope. We talk about the “butterfly effect,” how one person's journey can set off ripples in another's, and how Kelsi's path toward sobriety inspired my own journey toward mental health and recovery. Today, Kelsi is a wife, a stepmom, and a business owner who helps women grow their brands online. She openly shares her story about mental health and recovery, and her DMs are always open to anyone re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol. Connect with Kelsi on Instagram @kelsibyers I'm excited for you to tune in, and as always, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the episode.

This week on The Breaking Up With Anxiety® Podcast, it's another Ask Me Anything episode where I answer a great question from you—my amazing community! Specifically, about exercise and anxiety. The question is: "I hear you say you're a spin addict and you love spinning... is that a type of exercise you recommend for anxiety?" Short answer… no! In this episode, I explain why high-intensity exercises like spinning aren't ideal if you have anxiety, especially if you're dealing with hormonal imbalances or adrenal issues. Instead, I break down how to adjust your workouts based on the four phases of your menstrual cycle. We cover which exercises are most beneficial in each phase, how to avoid over-exercising, and why strength training might be a better option for long-term mental health. If you've ever wondered how to balance your workouts with your hormones and anxiety, this episode is for you. Plus, I share how I personally cycle-sync my own exercise routine!

The question is: "Do you recommend eating before or after exercising?

In this week's episode of The Breaking Up With Anxiety® Podcast, I'm joined by Todd, Co-Founder of Komusō! Todd helped develop the Shift, a breathing necklace designed to help reduce stress in situations like commuting, work meetings, traveling, falling asleep, overthinking, and social anxiety. I personally have the Classic Shift necklace in gold, and I absolutely love it. It's inspired by 17th-century Japanese monks who used a flute to find stillness. Before Komusō, Todd knew very little about wellness and unknowingly suffered from high-functioning anxiety. Learning about the science of breath completely transformed his daily life, from how he wakes up, eats, and drives, to how he interacts with others and sleeps. Now, Todd is dedicated to educating the world about how better breathing can be a life-changing habit. In this episode, Todd and I chat about how we both struggled with "traditional" meditation due to anxiety and found alternative ways to incorporate breathwork into our daily routines. Todd introduces the concept of preventative vs. rescue breathing, which changed my approach to breathwork, and shares his realization that anxiety isn't a personality trait—you can retrain your brain! And so much more! I loved this conversation, and I hope it gives you some powerful insights into how breathwork can be an effective tool for kicking anxiety to the curb.

"Stop being anxious!" If you are like others, those words bring frustration and uncertainty. While the Bible teaches not to worry and tells us not to be anxious we continue fretting over life. Dan Millman once said "you don't have to control your thoughts you just can't let your thoughts control you." So instead of the worlds view of offering self-helps or turning over a new leaf why don't we look at what scripture teaches about an anxious mind?

Quote: It is the mind that makes one wise or ignorant, bound or emancipated. -Sri Ramakrishna Chapters 0:00:24 Finding Peace and Calm in the Frantic Mind 0:01:08 Inspiration from Eknath Eswaran: A Spiritual Teacher's Wisdom 0:02:16 Slowing Down the Mind for Deep Relaxation and Concentration 0:07:42 One-Pointed Attention: Unifying Consciousness and Deepening Concentration 0:09:24 The Power of Mantras: Transforming Consciousness through Repetition 0:12:26 Discovering the Power of Mantras 0:13:17 Exploring the Teachings of Akhenath Aswaran 0:14:42 Embracing Ancient Wisdom for a Calm and Peaceful Life 0:17:03 The Power of the Mind in Wisdom and Freedom Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, we explore the wisdom of spiritual teacher Eknath Eswaran. Eswaran, founder of the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation and meditation instructor at the University of California, Berkeley, emphasizes the power of slowing down the mind to reduce stress and tension. By practicing meditation and slowing our pace of life, we can cultivate resilience and make choices with clarity. Eswaran's book, "Words to Live By," provides daily guidance and inspiration, outlining his eight-point program that includes practices such as meditation, mantra repetition, and focused attention. The idea of having a mantra resonates deeply with me personally. I have found that listening to podcasts while driving and focusing on a chosen mantra helps me stay present and attentive. Eswaran's second point in his program is the repetition of a mantra, or what he refers to as a mantram. These powerful spiritual formulas can transform consciousness when silently repeated in the mind. Every religious tradition has its own mantras, such as the name of Jesus, Hail Mary, Blessed art thou, Allah, and Om Mani Padme Hum. It is important to choose a mantra that deeply appeals to us and to stick with it, as changing mantras may hinder the deep benefits they can provide. Repeating our chosen mantra silently throughout the day, during activities like walking, waiting, or doing chores, can help us stay relaxed and alert. The calming effect of the mantra can also alleviate negative emotions such as anger, fear, and worry. From my personal experience, I have been using the same mantra since the mid-90s and have found it to have a profound impact on my life. It pops up unexpectedly and grounds me in moments when I need it most. I highly recommend exploring Eknath Eswaran's teachings and reading his other books, including "The Unstruck Bell."

A meditation anchor serves as a focal point that helps to maintain presence and prevent the mind from wandering. One of the most accessible and commonly used anchors is the breath. By directing our attention to the physical sensations associated with breathing, we can ground ourselves in the present moment. To begin, find a comfortable position and maybe close your eyes. Focus on the natural movement of your breath and take notice of where you feel it the most in your body. Engage in non-judgmental curiosity and let your focus settle on the breath without forcing or changing it. As you continue, remain aware of any thoughts that arise, but avoid reacting or becoming overwhelmed by them. Remember that thoughts are not hard evidence – they simply exist, and we have the power to choose how we respond to them. With consistent practice, the ability to detach from thoughts and feelings can be developed. By observing these mental phenomena without giving them too much meaning or influence, we can gradually shift our perspective and regain a sense of control. This detachment allows us to gain insight from our thoughts and feelings without being consumed by them. We recognize that our minds and hearts are not rigid, but instead are capable of change. By directing our attention back to the breath, which serves as our anchor, we remain rooted in the present moment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
