Finding Balance can help alleviate anxiety

I find value in using Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills founded by Marsha Linehan in addressing anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy centers around the concept of dialectics or achieving a more balanced way of thinking and living. Do you ever feel like your being pulled between two extremes and stuck in the middle? Do your thoughts confuse you or seem to contradict each other and does this create distress? If so does this create anxiety for you? Do you experience a lot of judgement toward yourself? This model of therapy is focused around teaching skills in the following four areas

Mindfulness

Interpersonal Effectiveness

Distress Tolerance

Emotion Regulation

Increasing and practicing skills in ANY of these areas of life will help you to be more confident and in control which can address anxiety
