Breaking Free From Anxiety

What if one small boundary could free your nervous system and regulate your anxiety today?

Join Philippa on this solo episode of the 4D Human Being Podcast as she translates the science of anxiety into daily habits. Calm your body, tidy your thinking and reclaim your ability to choose.
You will learn:

• Why anxiety often masks deeper feelings like shame or fear and how it shows up across physical, emotional and intellectual dimensions
• How fight or flight hijacks pace and decisions, and why overthinking keeps the loop alive
• The “capacity bucket” test for overwhelm
• A simple physical hack to down-regulate fast: slow your movements, speech and breath so your body leads your brain
• Why we tend to rely on overthinking to overcome, when it actually it's our body that is the secret doorway to escape the trap
• When anger and confusion can be helpful signals for change

Try this today. Walk slower, make the coffee slower, speak slower. Notice how your system follows. Then ask a better question than “why am I like this?”. What does this feeling want? Safety? Belonging? Love?
Start giving those to yourself rather than chasing them in the next task or Inbox Zero.

Listen for grounded, 4D tools you can use immediately to move from anxious reaction to intentional action.
