Show Notes

In this podcast episode, DARE coaches Michelle Cavanaugh and Aida Beco discussed the difference between "noticing" and "checking in," particularly in relation to depersonalization and anxiety. They explained that noticing involves being aware of stimuli without much brain work, while checking in is an active search for something specific, often due to heightened awareness or resistance.

Aida and Michelle emphasized the importance of accepting past mistakes and being non-judgmental about experiences. They also talked about handling discomfort and sensitization in anxiety, encouraging listeners to endure and resist the urge to fight discomfort.
