Anxiety often feels intense not because something is wrong, but because the brain has turned up its internal “volume knob” to get your attention. In this brief talk, you’ll learn why anxious sensation get amplified, and how your response to them can gently guide the nervous system back toward safety.
 
We’ll explore how turning away from uncomfortable sensations can inadvertently signal danger, increasing their intensity—while turning toward them with steadiness and curiosity helps the brain settle into safety. This is the core of somatic tracking: creating a calm, supportive presence so the body can learn that it's indeed safe. 

If you experience anxiety, panic, or chronic mind–body symptoms, this talk offers a clear, compassionate explanation of what’s happening internally and why this approach can be so relieving.
