Many people function in a stressed state; some people can even thrive in it. But chronic stress and anxiety are different matters. Both anxiety and stress have a biological impact on the nervous system, the Heart, Kidneys, Liver and Spleen that can lead to serious issues like insomnia, nervous disorders, digestive issues and panic attacks. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, anxiety is understood as disturbance of the Heart spirit (Shen). Anxiety is an intense level of stress that is “embodied fear”. So how do we transform fear into love?
