6 Daily CHoices
Highly recommend Dr John Delony’s book “Building a Non-Anxious Life”.
Dr. John Delony’s "6 Daily Choices" are actionable steps from his book, Building a Non-Anxious Life, designed to reduce anxiety by fostering connection, setting boundaries, and embracing reality. These choices are to choose reality, connection, freedom, health/healing, mindfulness, and belief.
The 6 Daily Choices to Build a Non-Anxious Life
Choose Reality: Accept the current,, uncomfortable truth of your situation instead of fighting, ignoring, or pretending it is not happening. Healing cannot start until you acknowledge the starting line.
Choose Connection: Actively combat loneliness by building deep, meaningful relationships with people, rather than relying on digital interaction.
Choose Freedom: Actively decide what you will not do. It involves setting boundaries to stop being pulled in every direction by external pressures and commitments.
Choose Health & Healing: Prioritize physical health to support mental health, including sleep, nutrition, and addressing past traumas, rather than treating them as separate issues.
Choose Mindfulness (or Perspective): Shift from merely reacting to life’s stressors to being aware and intentional about your responses.
Choose Belief: Find purpose in something bigger than yourself, preventing your self-worth from being tied solely to your feelings or personal achievements.
These choices, as highlighted in this Apple Podcast episode and further explained in this Passion Struck interview, are not meant to make anxiety disappear immediately, but rather to build a life that is more resilient and ultimately less anxious. They represent a shift from being a passive victim of circumstances to an empowered individual.
