Anxiety is one of the most prevalent concerns in the world. It is estimated that one in three people will experience an anxiety disorder at one point in their lives. Most of us become familiar with this through personal experience, whether our own or someone near to us. In order to access mental wellness we need to be informed about what anxiety is and how it can be managed & in this episode we do exactly that. 

The Mental Wellness Practice is where you can learn important information, delve into reflection prompts, and leave with practical strategies. In this episode, Dr. Shainna, licensed mental health counselor, educator, advocate and author of the newly released book Designing Healthy Boundaries highlights 10 key things that everyone needs to know about anxiety.
