A Philosophical Understanding of Anxiety with Samir Chopra, PhD

Samir Chopra is a philosophical counselor and professor emeritus of Philosophy at Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.  At times difficult and emotional today’s conversation may not be everyone’s cup of tea, I acknowledge that, but I encourage you to stay present and curious and explore what might show up for you. Because ultimately it’s a conversation about what it means to love.  I hope this episode will add a new layer in aiding you to reflect, reconsider and reconceptualize anxiety. We don’t have to be anxious about being anxious. Embracing our anxiety can be a portal to self-discovery and freedom.
