In her book, 'Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose,' Martha Beck emphasizes that anxiety misleads individuals, suggesting that to be safe, one must fear. When individuals confront their anxious thoughts, they often find that many are unfounded, paving the way for transformative awareness. Beck argues that in challenging times, cultivating calm and commitment is crucial. By recognizing and dismantling the lies of anxiety, people can reclaim their creativity and live more fulfilling lives, moving beyond a defensive posture.
anxiety always lies.
When you seek the truth beneath your anxious thoughts, you discover that many of them aren't real.
Yes, and doesn't that require us to show up as our calmest, most committed, and competent selves?
Anxiety does not do that, it just tells lies that say: Be in a defensive posture.
