Physical Symptoms of Anxiety

 







Sometimes my body feels anxious before my mind does.
A tight chest, a stomach that won’t settle, a racing heart out of nowhere.

And I catch myself wondering, what if this could be anxiety?

Anxiety doesn’t always start with spiraling thoughts. For many of us, it shows up in the body first, restlessness, tension, trouble sleeping, or a heaviness we can’t quite explain.

That’s why “just calm down” rarely works. My mind might know I’m okay, but my body hasn’t caught up yet.

It needs something different, grounding, breath, gentle movement, or touch to remind it that it’s safe.

If your body feels on edge even when your mind seems calm, it might be anxiety showing up in its own way. And that’s not a flaw, it’s your nervous system asking for care. 🌿

💛 If this feels familiar, know you don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy can give you the tools and support your body needs to find steadier rhythms. Contact us today to find out more info!

LGBT Therapy in Richmond

LGBT Pride Month, observed in June, is celebrated around the U.S. with parades and activism events. At the same time, many people do not know Pride Month’s origin, which honors the 1969 Stonewall riots — a demonstration which blazed the trail for activists across the country. In 1970, the first Gay Pride marches took place in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. There has been a lot of progress since then, but LGBT advocates are still working toward a future without discrimination in the workplace and beyond. Here are some powerful quotes from changemakers who are have contributed to the movement for LGBT equality: “Openness may not completely disarm prejudice, but it’s a good place to start.” — Jason Collins, first openly gay athlete in U.S. pro sports “When all Americans are treated as equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free.” — Barack Obama If you need support, contact us today for therapy in   Berkeley and Richmond www.lifebyde...
