Description
<p>Anxiety is something that reaches more people than we realize. It's something that touches us in so many different ways, and it’s crucial to learn where it comes from, to understand how it influences us, and how can we begin to take control over our past experiences that trigger it. </p><br><p>We wanted to make it easier for you to get all the information you need related to overcoming this feeling, so we worked on a book called, “Conquer Anxiety”, that’s designed to do just that. Co-authoring with us is Jon Skidmore, a licensed psychologist and a professor at Brigham Young University, who has an amazing background in helping people through anxiety and all kinds of performance anxiety-related issues. </p><br><p><strong>Today, </strong>we invited him to share some powerful insights into understanding the basics of how our brain functions, and why we’re sometimes driven by fears that create powerful anxieties that get in our way throughout the journey of becoming our best. </p><br><p>Jon is committed to getting the psychological skills of peak performance and mental toughness into the hands of performers of all ages and stages. Listen to <strong>Episode 233 </strong>of <strong>Becoming Your Best </strong>to learn how the book he wrote alongside with us can help you get a clearer view on the triggers that activate the flight response that stops you from achieving greatness. </p><br><p><strong>Questions I ask:</strong> </p><ul><li>Why do we experience anxiety in the first place, as human beings?
