EP79 - Anxiety Spraying

Dr. Kimberly Murray & Dr. Gregory Seibert Season 1 Episode 79

Anxiety spraying: the act of casting your anxiety on those around you. We all get anxious, but do you or someone you love sometimes become so anxious, that others around cannot help but pick up those emotions? We have all been there! Emotions are contagious, often leading to others being affected by our emotional state without even intending it. It is time we all come to understand our emotions and how our emotions impact others, we well as how to take control of them!

Join us as we dive into anxiety spraying, and other forms of emotional contagion. We explain what it is, why it matters, and how to prevent it. We also explain emotional reciprocity and why this is key for emotionally safe, balanced relationships with those we love. You are responsible for your emotions, and we are here to help you take ownership of them!
