Does your heart pound a million miles a minute when you have to speak in front of a group of people? What about before going on a blind date? Do you anticipate the worst? Does your mind go blank before an exam? If you answer yes to any of these questions, then anxiety has played a role in your life. These are a few of the many symptoms we, as humans, may feel that demonstrate anxiety. I remember my freshmen year of college when I had to present to a group of investors for my business class. My hands got sweaty, mouth became dry and I felt like jumping out of my skin. After I finished and the feeling passed, the thought of relief and "that wasn't so bad" came over me. The only reason we as human begin to acquire any form of anxiety is due to fear. Anxiety is our body's self defense against fear and unless we overcome our fears, anxiety will forever play a role in our lives.
