Episode description

Do you worry a lot? Do you know someone who does? If you answered yes to either of these questions you are going to get so much relief from this week's episode. 

How we think has a profound impact on how we feel and what we do. Worry can be so very debilitating, bringing with it a gnawing sense of anxiety that disrupts daily activities, saps energy, impairs concentration and genuinely affecting happiness. Worry can also lead to insomnia, fatigue, a weakened immune system and more. There are a lot of downsides to worry, so is it worth our time and energy?

Researchers from Pen State University ran a study to answer the question 'how many worries actually come true?'. In this episode Dr Jodi Richardson shares the surprising findings of this research in addition to practical strategies to help you put worry in its place.
