I know NOTHING about birds so do not judge me. LOL.

Here’s the scene: I’m sitting at my kitchen table sipping coffee this morning, watching the birds at my new feeder. They're hopping in, pecking at seeds, wings twitching and every two seconds, they're moving their heads around like they just heard a loud noise behind them. To me, these birds seem anxious, filled with anxiety, and stressed out even while being at a safe space.

And suddenly it hit me: These birds are me. They’re you. They're anyone who lives with anxiety.

They're trying to enjoy the moment, getting nourishment, literally feeding themselves but they’re wired to stay on high alert. They're head is on a swivel and their nervous system is screaming What if?

Sound familiar? Let's talk about it!
