I read this again today and what stood out for me was “We learn to bow to anxiety’s awesome power and intelligence, and to ride the wave of anxiety as it arises, reaches its peak, and crashes back to its source” . I thought of surfers riding waves. There are two ways to be with it and I have been experimenting with fighting against it for so long. I again feel an inner excitement of this new way of being with anxiety. Just to be able to think of it like this is an awesome big step in and of itself.
