I was just trying to explain anxiety and the physical part of the cycle to my son. Very frustrating. People don’t get it. I loved this teaching. Addicted to anxious thoughts-that’s me.
Thank you for this straight forward and common sense approach. Knowing that there is a precise action that can be taken to assuage the energy of worry is empowering and re-establishes personal agency in this crazy world. Bows.
While doing my counseling internship I had a client say she worries about worrying and after hearing you I could easily say she is/was addicted to her worries ! Great video ! Thank you
Sometimes when I’m calm and everything’s Okay, I will purposely dwell on a problem or worry. I see the folly in this but weirdly, the worry is a comfort.
The addiction to worry is seen like cool. It´s misunderstood in work life with responsibility. It’s lacking and separating people. It become a family problem
Yes I can see how this can strangle clients lives. This was very helpful in the simplistic way anxiety is explained and the way we can teach clients to work on their anxious thoughts, bodily sensations, and compassion for themselves.
When faced with personal conflict, (I feel anxious in my body talking about it), THE anxiety, (not MY anxiety, don’t own that shit), takes over and I’m in addiction to worry! This is a problem, I want/need relief from it!
I felt some kind of relief as Tara was explaining exactly how I feel much of the time. I thought it was more fear but perhaps it is more anxiety that hurts me so much!
I am going to practice these steps and hopefully get some relief.
I will also be seeking out more of Tara’s work!
Thank you,
Jennifer A.
Thank you for these words it was very helpful. I have worried about my health all my life. Whenever something was wrong with us as children we were told something bad was wrong with us. Now I have severe acid reflux that will not go away. I am very aware that I have a fear that it is something more because the medication doesn’t work. However I work on yoga and meditation every day. For the first time yesterday I was able to watch my anxious thoughts and not be them. It was amazing so now I await them so I can practice this again. I feel like I am on the right track.
Thank you Tara. After reading the responses below, I realize I am not alone with my PTSD, anxiety and depression. So many have said exactly how I have felt my whole life. I’ll be turning 60 soon, have been searching for anything that will ease these feelings. I will
try your 3 step mindfulness practice, and look forward to your next video on self doubt. Sounds like there are many of us who need this also.
I suffered from “catastrophic thinking” for years after my young child had a brain aneurysm. I developed gastrointestinal problems which has taken decades to manage. Anxiety was my constant state, because of other very negative life factors. I am in a much better place after realizing so much of what you’re teaching. I am so much more calm and non reactive to small upsets now. Thank you for the science behind this and getting this message out.
I often worry about my physical health and what would happen to my children if I were to die. Ive been trying to put more focus on improving my health instead of worrying about illness. I have also been practicing acceptance of mortality. I will try to use these tools to face fear and break worry addiction. Thank you!!!
I have felt fearful all of my life since I can remember. As a child I spent a lot of time alone. I know now as an adult that my parents were going through a hard time during my childhood. I feel that it affected me more than my brothers and one sister because I am more sensitive to what other people feel and think than they seem to be. I believe that my mother was almost completely checked out because of my father’s treatment of her. She told me much later in life that she had a complete nervous breakdown. How anxiety affects me now is that I obsess over everything that I do, over and over again trying to reassess if it sounds right and so on and so on and so on. I have a hard time sleeping.
I have felt paralyzed at times by worrying about things and situations I cannot control. I find if I acknowledge this and release this need to maintain a posture of control, I can begin to relax and lose the need to worry.
A really wonderful counselor once told me many years ago that worry gives us the illusion of control and I have found that to be very true. It’s interesting to me that kind of control is an illusion while our real power in creating Our Lives is in becoming mindful of all of our thoughts and feelings and then exercising our ability to start consciously embracing the ones we wish to experience instead of the ones that are based on habitual fear. Thank you so much for the reminders and the great tools and for offering your wisdom so clearly and freely.
I thought at first this was too simplistic, but when she said offering kindness to the vulnerability within us that was a turning point. Emotions came up and I felt more at ease. Wonderful process. Thank you Tara.
I learned to worry from one of the best worriers- my father. I’ve been working to overcome worry for decades and have certainly made progress. However, at 73, with worry so deeply ingrained, from birth (even before), I need reminders like this in order to keep going and to keep anxiety at bay. I really appreciate Tara and Joan for freely offering their knowledge and compassion. Thank you.
I am excited to learn from this!
I’m a public school special ed. Teacher working with some of the most difficult students I’ve ever had. My anxiety climbs through the roof on my drive in to work every morning…
I am desperate to find sometime regain control of my anxiety! Fingers crossed this will help!
Thank you so much. I learn and practice as the saying goes practice makes perfect. These tools helps me and all the people around me. You are awesome for sharing your tools. Jacynthe Dugas
My whole life has been fear and anxiety. My mother was a bitter cruel alcoholic, my father a sadistic psychopath and predator. Our first three dogs he shot, ran over and killed a forth, the other two had a constant death sentence hanging over them. The house was full of guns, and for weeks on end he would disappear screaming as he left how he was going to kill us all. I would stand, waiting for the school bus, looking into the woods wondering if I would die before the bus got there. Then in the afternoon getting off the bus, not daring to look over my shoulder, try to walk as natural as possible to the house for fear of triggering something in him.
When he would live in the barn after some argument, my mother would send my brother and I with his meals. He’d sit in the dark with a rifle threatening us, our mother, sisters … dog, whatever his insane mind would latch onto. I took the beatings for everyone else, still what my sister’s went through was bad too, and my brother had his own special hell. Then when grand daughters came along my constant fear was for them. All through University and decades of work I was home every weekend, holiday and vacation working to prevent some evil being visited on my nieces. Twice I caught him “pleasuring himself” on the side of their bed as they slept. I would leave on a Sunday night with him in screaming rages threatening to kill himself, drag his granddaughters into a room and “blow his brains out”, hang himself in the garage so they find him in the morning when they came over to catch the bus, or, simply walk in after I’d worked nine hours in construction (justification for being their Saturday/Sunday) to see him sitting in the living room with the curtains drawn and a gun leaning against his chair. I got to where I’d jump inside every time a phone rang, thinking it was the Police with bad news from back home.
The last years of his life he had dementia. To the doctors, nurses and health care professionals he would cry and talk about killing himself. Early on he had a stroke and we tried to get him committed but the hospital insisted on discharging him home again .. after I’d had found more than two dozen guns hidden the house. He was a hoarder so I missed some, and in the end, after six years of dementia, it was him holding a gun when a homecare worker came in (after a few days previous trying to grab a police officer’s gun) that forced the Doctors to take action and have him committed to a secure dementia ward.
It’s now two years after he has died and my life is still a daily struggle. My employer is failing, my apartment is being sold out from under me and there’s very little available that I can afford. And all around me are the people I work with that are caught up in difficult times and drawing into their emotional states … seems anxiety is my middle name!
True, a lot of things I feared in life did not happen, so many other things did though. I know I have a twisted, generally out of touch, sense of reality. And at 60 years old, I am not in fact waiting for the school bus to arrive or to be shoot. Still, I find that I’m reacting to the present real, though relatively minor, worries I have as if they were the life and death ones of so many decades of my life …
Tara, your video is expanding my range of tools in a deep way. Explaining the addiction to these afflictive emotions touches my meditation practice as well as my adult children 12 step program. Returning to the breath gently after noticing my mind has wandered is part of my meditation practice. And part of my 12 step program speaks about being addicted to excitement. So far that statement has not been explained in my literature. So I am free to ponder it. I feel what you just described has given me a big key to understanding the concept of excitement addiction. One could describe anxiety as a form of excitement.
Thank you for the videos. I just watched the 1st & 2nd one & I look forward to adding the 3 steps into my day to see what relief I can get. Much of my fear is situational right now but it’s not short term so I need to find help for it. Trying the 3 steps with the video I did notice that symptoms lessened so I look forward to practicing & feeling the outcome. I like the mindful videos & hope that I get relief.
A life of violence murder abuse as in War then emotional neglect and abuse tends to destroy your DNA and the Anxiety if burned into a victim. I spent 5 years in Therapy have learned some life skills I was never taught as a child. But bring big events in my life and I can stand on my feet in courage but I tell you I get home I cry become exhausted. It turned to depressed every Winter. This is mindful meditation. Thank you
Thank you for your video. I never thought of ANXIETY as an addiction, it makes sense.
For years I have had anxiety and PTSD starting when I was sexually abused as a child. I tried to take my life in my twenties. I am now in my 70s and still suffering from the “addiction”. Always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I like the Mark Twain quote. I would add most of the time I don’t wear shoes so it is silly of me to wait.
Since my 20s I have been medicated for anxiety. Then the alcohol then the self destructive marriages possibly not in that order but in alignment. Now I am much older, my body is starting to fail and I am sure a lot of it is because of the anxiety. I tried to work through the abuse issues in my 40s, but my perpetrator denied it, so I was unable to get closure. I am assuming that I hung on to the anxiety as a way of coping.
Now trying to be mindful, but it is still there, the loop. Always.
Yes anxiety can have a really limiting effect on people I work with, to the oint of avoiding the situations that they fear the most. It can be like a paralysis. Thanks for the video. I’ll try this with clients.
Such a great teaching. I’ve lived with intense anxiety my entire life. I feel I’m finally becoming free. It’s beautiful to have that stranglehold soften. For me the the first step is so important to recognize and be aware. Then you can put other practices in place. Being a Christian I made a practice of intentionally choosing what I put in my mind. Worry/anxiety cannot coexist with worship. I listened to the words of praise music. There are amazing artists! Our last thoughts when we go to sleep can stay in our minds for several hours as we sleep. Reprogramming our minds by having those last minutes be filled with praise helps for me. Breathing exercises and yoga are also great!
In the definition of fear response, one element was not mentioned. Instead of fight or flight, some of us experience a freeze reaction. Instead of enhanced blood flow, the body contracts and, to some degree, becomes incapacitated.
I’ve read some of the other comments. For those who are feeling pressed, you might wish to check out a talk Tara Brach gave on spiritual re-parenting. I found the material very helpful. A video and transcript are available on her site: https://www.tarabrach.com/spiritual-reparenting-2/
Very helpful in explaining the difference between worry and fear and what it does to the body when we get in the “loop”. Simple practice to teach clients how to address the worry when it arises. Looking forward to next video Tara. Thank you!
As I release the strangling hold of my worry vine I visualize peeling back, vine by vine the individual thoughts that brought me to this place of chronic anxiety.
Little by little I pull away the weeds of worry allowing the sun to shine through improving the garden of good thoughts to grow.
It is so calming top simply put my hands over my heart. I am one of those people that believes worrying was just planning to deal with things if they weren’t wrong. I call it my Plan B process. Thank you.
This was so very helpful. Particularly the description of “ strangling “ as I try to explain to people what anxiety feels like. Thank you. I look forward to your next talk. I will read your book.
Excellent, concise presentation that provides helpful ways to address addiction to worry. Important to know that we can pause and recondition that cycle of fear and worry.
I worry so much I start to worry about how much I worry… and about what sort of a person would worry about worrying so much… ad infinitum. Glad to have a simple method to use to try to break this habit. Thanks!
Thank you Tara, I thought this was very helpful and interesting. I offer mindfulness techniques with clients now and they truly gravitate towards this approach and way of addressing their anxiety. I liked the explanation of the difference between fear and anxiety.
I was mentally fed by a narcissist for 30 years, a master in degrading words.
I have so much self doubt, I question myself with just about everything.
I’m not sure I am going to make it.
Like to learn something new. I admit anxiety is a tough one when there is really no one here to worry about but me. Difficult if you are depressed and future looks bleak. I go to a Godly church, am sober, no kids, low income, talented,
bright educated person. I have difficulty with accepting the fact I am truly responsible for my well being. It overwhelms me daily.
Thank you for the 3 steps around anxiety induced by probercation of fear . This reinforces me to continue mindfulness and acknowledgement of my unhelpful thoughts and slowing down the breath and feeling where it is in the body bringing me back to the moment and giving self compassion Thank you ???
I have CPTSD, this is incredibly helpful as a practice, I do it slightly differently in saying it is the adult part of me reassuring the frightened child inside that she is safe, which I know would not necessarily translate for others, but it works for me.
I have certainly found that mindful practice can reduce feelings of anxiety sometimes, but self-doubt often has a strangling effect, so interested in part 3.
I was just trying to explain anxiety and the physical part of the cycle to my son. Very frustrating. People don’t get it. I loved this teaching. Addicted to anxious thoughts-that’s me.

So I wonder if my addiction to crime TV and researching serial killers or grizzly crimes is all just part of the addiction to worry?
Sometimes when I’m calm and everything’s Okay, I will purposely dwell on a problem or worry. I see the folly in this but weirdly, the worry is a comfort.
