Class Experience

Please check the syllabus for a detailed weekly schedule. 
This is a self-paced course that students can take on their own time. 
Videos and lessons are pre-recorded by myself, which include short YouTube clips covering weekly topics, shared PDF files, and walk-throughs of journal pages and exercises. 

Anxiety can be scary! Especially if you don't know what is really happening on the inside. This course aims to explain what anxiety is, how it affects our brains, and what we can do to fight back. Gaining a sense of control over anxiety is one of the biggest tools I can provide for students and I hope this class is found to be helpful for them!

Skills that will be covered: 

Sliding scale scoring
The 4 four parts of the brain that are affected 
The 4 F's (Fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and identifying which one we are).
Navy Seal Box Breathing Method 
Five Finger Breathing
Emergency Brake Breath
5-4-3-2-1 Method 
Peripheral Vision Game 
Journaling page for thought progression 
Test-taking anxiety tips 
Weekly "Be, Act, Think" prompt cards
The impact of sleep deprivation 
Which foods could potentially help or make anxiety worse
Circle of control +Stress bucket
Establishing healthy boundaries 
6 areas of wellness and how to maintain balance to relieve anxiety 
The vagus nerve. What is it? Where is it? How does it affect anxiety?

Learning Goals

Students will improve their knowledge of anxiety and how to manage it on their own.
