Lesson Overview

18.15 – Understanding Social Anxiety in Group Settings: Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel like performing on stage under a spotlight. Your heart races, your thoughts loop, and you over-analyze every small reaction. But anxiety doesn’t mean you’re broken; it means your nervous system is over-protecting you. Learning to calm your body helps quiet the noise in your head. Practice slow breathing, prepare gentle conversation starters, and focus on listening instead of self-monitoring. Most people are too busy worrying about themselves to judge you harshly. Progress happens through exposure, not avoidance. Each small success rewires your confidence. Over time, you’ll notice that connection feels easier when you stop striving for perfection and start practicing presence. Anxiety may whisper, but courage can speak louder.
