Why are we so anxious — all the time? In this eye-opening Radio Headspace interview, author and sociologist Martha Beck unpacks the social and cultural roots of stress and fear. She explores why anxiety arises when we aren’t aligned with our inner truth, how “negativity bias” causes us to fixate on what scares us the most, why modern life keeps our nervous systems on high alert, and how mindfulness can help us cope. A must-watch if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, or out of sync with yourself.
