About this episode

635: Welcome back to the Anxiety Slayer Podcast. This week, Ananga and I are responding to a question from our private Facebook group about sleep anxiety. 

“Does anyone else experience sleep related anxiety? A 'bad' night's sleep for me at the moment can trigger several more nights as I worry about not being able to sleep. Needless to say, I then find anxiety lurking in the background all day as well.”

We're talking about what helps and sharing a guided Tapping Session to calm the fear of a bad night's sleep
