All show notes for this episode can be found right here.

Acceptance is admitting the fear that what we're dealing with is health anxiety, nothing more and nothing less. However, why is it so hard to admit this truth to ourselves? Today we dive deep into a crucial health anxiety topic so we can overcome the fear, let's go.

In this episode you will learn,

  • Why it's so challenging for health anxiety sufferers to admit to their sound physical health
  • How 'secondary gains' prevent us from seeing the truths behind health anxiety
  • How to find peace from these repeated anxiety symptoms

Enjoy!
