DESCRIPTION

Chantal McCulligh is the creator of Anxiety Gone – an amazing resource for people with anxiety.  She also curates Anxiety Gone subscription boxes. Chantal reached out to me about including Seeds of Intention cards in the boxes and I was really struck by the incredible resource she’s created. 

As someone who struggled with severe anxiety and panic attacks, I think her work is incredible.  I felt alone and terrified in that struggle so to know that there are places for people to get help and inspiration makes me very happy.

Chantal was diagnosed with panic disorder at 7.  In this episode, she shares candidly about her own journey.  She also shares how she copes with anxiety today and offers us some practical and useful tips.  She reminds us that we need to trust ourselves, be kind to ourselves and be open to finding solutions.  She shares how she layers these practices into simple daily practices to give herself a solid foundation and a real shift in mindset.

If you or anyone you know struggles with anxiety, this is a must listen.  It is also great for anyone looking to enhance their daily practices.  All of the tips are accessible and valuable to anyone.  We also talk all things yoga, meditation, aromatherapy and crystals. Enjoy!
