Listening to Anxiety

A man says he is always listening to something – a podcast, the radio – but when he stops, anxiety rises. He wishes he could stay silent for just a minute in peace. Rupert suggests that instead of listening to the other things, that he now listen to the ‘anxiety podcast’. Listen to your anxiety just the way you listen to podcasts and radio. Don’t try to get out of it; listen to it. By avoiding it, we collude with it.
