The Life of You – Dr Sian Williams on What Helps Keep Her Anxious Brain in Check

from The Life of Bryony

Dr Sian Williams is back! In our main episode we talked about anxiety, overwhelm and why so many of us feel like we’re just white-knuckling our way through the week; now Sian is sharing the three things she personally leans on to keep herself grounded. We talk about the movement that gets her out of her head and back into her body, how her five kids quietly (and not so quietly) keep her ego in check, and why music – from upbeat playlists, to first gigs to an unexpectedly brilliant Barry Manilow study – has shaped the way she thinks about confidence, nostalgia and not caring what other people think. If you’re juggling a busy brain, big feelings and a lot of responsibilities, this one’s for youBOOKS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODESian’s new book, The Power of Anxiety, is available to buy now.WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOUGot something to share?
