“Overcoming anxiety can feel like an uphill battle, especially when it seems impossible to make any changes. That story you keep telling yourself is a very real one!
But I know that if I was able to overcome my anxiety after twenty plus years, feeling the way I felt, anyone can improve their health and reduce the anxiety they’re experiencing”
— Nicola Mercer
