Session 179: The Role of Nostalgia in Managing Anxiety
Podcast:Therapy for Black Girls Published On: Wed Oct 28 2020 Description: The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably been spending much of your time watching or re-watching some of your favorite shows from the past like Girlfriends, Living Single, or One on One. But did you know that there’s a very good reason why so many of us are turning to old favorites right now to help soothe ourselves? Joining us again this week to dig into why, is Dr. Alicia Little Hodge. She and I chatted about how nostalgia works to calm anxiety, how anxiety looks different since the pandemic, and she offers her perspective on managing our anxiety around the election season.Resources MentionedVisit our Amazon Store for all the books mentioned on the podcast!Shoulda Sharonda & Friends Thinking StylesSupport Our SponsorsMake a plan to cast your vote and support voting rights at andstillivote.orgGet free shipping on your variety pack of cereal at magicspoon.com/therapyforblackgirls Be sure to enter THERAPYFORBLACKGIRLS at checkout.
