The difference between fear, stress + anxiety - a podcast by Jo Smith - Yoga Punx Unite

It’s kind of hard to break down the differences between fear, anxiety and stress in one sentence. But here is my attempt, to just give you an overview before I go into detail.

Fear is a response to an immediate threat, anxiety is the worrying or apprehension of a future event, and stress is a response to a pressure in a situation (we usually can pinpoint the cause).

We say we have a fear of something (flying, aging) and anxiety about something (flying, aging) or we’re stressed about/ from something.

This episode of Yoga Punx Unite begins with a 20-minute talk on the differences between feeling stressed, anxious, or fearful. Why there is a cross over, and how to overcome them quickly so you can think clearly and take appropriate action.

I share a few short practices within this talk that you can draw on anytime, followed by a more in-depth meditation practice for 11-minutes.
