From Anxiety
What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is often diagnosed and treated as a medical illness; as if it’s something that is broken or wrong with you.
At HopeGuide, we see it a bit differently.
Anxiety is not an illness. It’s an invitation to listen to our bodies.
When we learn to listen, we can find our way to feeling better faster.
Anxiety can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological influences. Life events such as trauma, loss of a loved one, difficult relationships, or any stressful situation can trigger or make it feel worse.
Anxiety is often treated as if it’s an isolated issue, independent of any contributing factors. At HopeGuide, we use our Holistic Mental Health model to create a targeted plan for you that considers all of the factors that may be making you feel anxious, and then we help you target them.
So you can feel better faster.
The most common contributors to anxiety are what we call what we call the “Core Four”…
What Causes Anxiety?
The Holistic Mental Health Model for Anxiety
The most common approaches for dealing with anxiety include prescription medication and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), also known as Talk Therapy.
While both methods can be effective, many people find themselves using one or both for years with only minimal improvements.
At HopeGuide, we adopt the Holistic Mental Health Model as the foundation for our work with anxiety. Recognizing the various factors that can contribute to anxiety, we believe it’s smarter to address as many of these factors as possible, focusing on what’s most likely to make a significant difference in your life!
Our process begins with a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, addressing both physiological and psychological aspects.
By utilizing our Core Four principles, our clients often experience faster and more substantial improvements in their well-being.
Using The “Core Four”
Sleep
Eat
The things we put into our body have a direct effect on how we feel emotionally. When our gut health is poor, our mental health suffers. In fact, 90-95% of our serotonin is actually created in our gut.
Move
A 2016 Meta-Analysis of studies including over 250,000 participants clearly demonstrated the significant effect of exercise on mental health, and specifically on depression and anxiety.
Poor sleep has a profound impact on our mental health. In fact, it’s estimated that between 50-80% of psychiatric patients suffer from a sleep disorder. Fortunately, poor sleep is a solvable problem and is one of the areas we focus on at HopeGuide to improve mental health.
Connect
In this modern world, we have increased the number of connections we have, but decreased the quality of those connections. As of 2020, 61 percent of Americans report to being lonely (according to Cigna).
