Show Notes
We can see anxiety as a problem to be solved, or an enemy to be battled, or at the very least, a feature of ourselves that doesn’t express our true self. But Professor Douglas Brooks offers the Sutras of Patanjali, other sacred texts, and lessons we can take from yoga, to explore a pathway to understanding anxiety that is empowering rather than debilitating, nurturing and protective rather than only stressful and terrorizing, and one that will help us enter a deeper relationship with ourselves.
