Although everyone experiences some level of anxiety as a part of the normal human emotional experience, overwhelming levels of anxiety have become more prevalent in today's society. Anxiety is essentially a “flight, fight, or freeze” response, releasing hormones that help you react quickly to avoid perceived or actual danger. Although anxiety creates uncomfortable feelings in the body, it also serves good purposes as well, such as avoiding danger and increasing one's ability to focus on priorities to solve immediate problems. When anxiety becomes a problem is when it interferes with our relationships, health, and/or ability to perform at work or school.
