What is Anxiety? - with Psychotherapist Anna Jackson
WHAT IS ANXIETY...?
Accredited Psychotherapist Anna Jackson joins Mind Friend to define 'anxiety' from a psychological point of view.
Anna explains that anxiety is our body's natural response when it detects a threat. The body releases cortisol, the stress hormone, and prepares the body for a 'fight or flight' response.
This prompts the body to move blood into the extremities, and away from internal organs.
