Understanding Anxiety – ESI Higher Ed EAP

Anxiety is a natural human response to stress, uncertainty, or perceived threats. It involves physical sensations – such as a racing heart or rapid breathing – as well as emotional reactions like worry, fear, or uneasiness. While occasional anxiety is normal and even helpful, chronic, or intense anxiety can interfere with daily life. Understanding anxiety helps us spot its signs, reduce stigma, and manage it effectively. Register for the Understanding Anxiety zoom
