Anxiety and Stress - The Inner Life - April 22, 2026

Father Dave Heney joins Patrick to discuss Anxiety and Stress (9:07) Spiritual need to not be stressed. (13:44) How to sleep better at night? (17:45) Jim - I was married at St. Bruno 30 years ago. I've just recently had a lot of stress in my life. Our marriage isn't 100percent as it used to be. AS far as married couples, you're both going to stress...how do we approach that subject together and help each other? I pray a lot, but she takes it a little bit differently. (23:41) Break 1 Patty - I refrain my anxiety to the word of fear. Fear is a lot easier to overcome than anxiety in my head. (34:21) Rose - How do you handle the stress over a child who isn't responsible? He's an adult and I don't know how to cope with it. (41:03) Break 2 What do you do if you want out in your marriage because of all of the stress? (45:57) Adrianne - I had been watching Mass most days and I came across a priest who talked about his life and how things were going wrong. One day, he said, 'what's important...I don't care about my business...bank account, etc.' I kind of modified that to any kind of stress and think of it that way, it looks stupid. It helped me a lot. Who is a great saint for anxiety?
