Two Voices, One Body
When anxiety speaks, your gut answers. This is how you hear it.
Anxiety projects outward. Gut doesn’t.
As anxiety says “what if they’re lying”, the gut is saying “I don’t have enough information to trust what they’re telling me, yet.”
Anxiety vs. gut can be difficult to discern because they both can show up in the same place in your body, and they're pointing at the same thing.
The key is to understand they deliver different messages, because they have different jobs.
Your gut’s entire job is to remind you of where your edges and limits are. To bring you home to yourself when the weather gets prickly. To remind you to take cover in a storm.
So your gut is only going to talk about you. It's not going to talk about what's happening outside of you.
Anxiety’s entire job is the alternative.
