Hi, my name is Holly from migraine savvy.com. And welcome to my course on practical ways to help manage depression and anxiety for migraine sufferers using CBT, strategic journaling and mindfulness based techniques. In this course, we're going to cover the two most comorbid conditions that accompany migraines. And that's anxiety and depression. We are going to cover all the basics, but in this course, I want to give you some tools you can use right now and right when you need them, so you can manage your migraines with confidence. In the first video, we'll cover some basics, like how to even know if you have anxiety, and some alarming statistics.

And we'll touch on suicide thoughts, and other risks involved. I'll show you three tips to reduce anxiety ASAP. We'll look at natural solutions, and what treatments yield the best results for migraine anxiety and depression. The four treatments if you have all three conditions, you'll learn some key things that help anxiety and depression and some key things to do if you get migraines. That's all in the first video. In Module Two, I'll walk you through a strategic journaling process.

In Module Three, we go over a cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT method for easing anxiety using a worksheet that you can use again and again, to help you cope with that pre migraine anxiety and the continued worry and stress. Let's face it, your anxiety can be constant if you're living in fear of your next attack. module four and five, we'll look at a new way to work with depression that I call redecorate your pit of depression, to make it a safe home away from home to recover. module six provides an innovative and self evolving tapping technique to help you confront and shift your blocked energy. And last but not least, my top movement exercises from Chi Gong and Tai Chi to help lift depression. Let's get started.

I'll see you in the next video.
