I Feel Anxious--- And I Don’t Know Why
If you scored a few 1s, 2s, or 3s, it’s something to take note of. If you see a pattern or feel like your anxiety is disrupting your daily life, working with a therapist can help bring clarity and relief. At Light the Way, we apply resources and expert knowledge from places like Amen Clinics to understand how anxiety affects both your mind and body. A region in the brain often linked to anxiety is the Basal Ganglia—this area can become overactive when you're feeling worried, tense, or fearing the worst. While you don’t need to be a brain expert, it’s helpful to know there are natural, science-backed methods to calm this part of your brain.
