Cultivate the habit of using "micro-moments" and mindfulness to refresh and replenish without adding to an already busy schedule. Discover how you can re-energize by putting more play in your day!

Anxiety is a common mental health condition involving discomfort, worry, and fear over a perceived threat. Stress can make us more susceptible to anxiety as it reduces our capacity to regulate our thinking, behavior, and emotions when faced with a challenging situation. Common types of anxiety include social anxiety, generalized anxiety, phobias, OCD, and PTSD. At Mindly, we utilize proven effective treatments to help people overcome difficulties anxiety is causing in their lives. Cognitive behavior therapy in particular is an effective treatment for anxiety and can also help develop more effective ways to manage stress.
