This 13-minute session provides a safe space to acknowledge your worries and gently anchor yourself back in the present moment. By focusing on your stride, you’ll learn how to "walk through" anxiety rather than being paralyzed by it. Safety note: Keep your eyes open and stay aware of your surroundings. Your safety always comes first. Follow the audio only as far as it's safe to do so. **What you’ll explore:** * How to differentiate between "productive planning" and "anxious ruminating." * Somatic techniques to calm the nervous system when you feel future-focused stress. * A guided practice for releasing the need to control outcomes you cannot influence. **How to get the most out of this walk:** * Acknowledge the specific worry at the start, then treat each step as a deliberate move away from the "what-ifs."
