My Personal Health Anxiety Journey - How I Got To Where I Am Now
from Healing Beyond Health Anxiety · host Amy Caldwell
Get In Touch!In this episode, I talk about my own journey with health anxiety after my diagnosis in 2018 and how it completely changed the way I related to my body. I share how fear, symptom scanning and the need for certainty slowly took over my life, and why nobody explaining the nervous system side of health anxiety left me feeling stuck for years.I also talk about one of the biggest shifts in my recovery… learning that trusting my body did not mean constantly monitoring it.For so long, I believed that staying safe meant staying hyper aware. Checking sensations, scanning my body and constantly looking for reassurance. But what I eventually realised is that this level of surveillance was actually a sign that trust had already been lost.I share how the nervous system can learn fear so deeply that the body begins reacting automatically before conscious thoughts even appear, because the body remembers. And how real healing for me came from slowly teaching myself that safety wasn’t found in constant checking… but in allowing my body to exist without being on high alert all the time.This episode is for anyone who feels exhausted by the fear cycle and wants to start rebuilding trust with themselves again.Connect & Work With MeIf you’re ready to move beyond health anxiety and start truly healing, I’d love to support you.Access Free Training Here: www.healthanxietycoach.co.ukPurchase my 21 Day Reset Planner - To Start Your Recovery Journey Today:https://stan.store/healinghealthanxietyHear what my clients are saying about me:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHi1_ddJnhlEaMvzVtuKQioyXv5N7WS8g&si=wzNsNXn7d32Hzy8oGet in touch:email me: [email protected] with me Via My 16 Week Group Coaching Program Follow along on Social Media @thehealthanxietycoach 💬 DM me or say Hi! – I always love hearing from listeners!Thanks for listening to Healing Beyond Health Anxiety 💚 If this episode helped you, please consider rating & sharing it...it means the world!
