As we age, it’s natural to become more attuned to our bodies—but for many, that awareness crosses into constant scanning, overthinking symptoms, and spiralling worst-case scenarios. The outcome is health anxiety, and it is a growing topic in therapy sessions.
This talk dives into what health anxiety looks like for Boomers and seniors—not just worry about illness, but the mental fatigue of managing the unknown. You’ll learn how the mind tries to keep you safe by predicting danger… but ends up creating more stress in the process.
We’ll explore how to calm the inner alarm system, separate fact from fear, and replace over-Googling with more effective habits. We’ll also cover how to have supportive conversations with doctors without feeling dismissed or panicked, and how to make peace with uncertainty—because no one gets a 100% guarantee on anything (sorry!).
This is not about ignoring health concerns—it’s about freeing up mental space so you can feel more grounded, confident, and clear-headed in your own body. Because peace of mind? That’s good for your health too.
This is a free event, but space is limited—reserve your seat today!
