Around a seven. Or occasionally AN EIGHT.<\/p>\n<p>At that level, anxiety can be a little cyclical. And it\u2019s not far from cycling around to nervous exhaustion and the old delightful panic attacks.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t want you to burn out! And so I\u2019m going to recommend this week\u2019s free yoga class, which is designed solely to take your anxiety down a notch. From a seven to a five.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5sdkH5fH7W4\" style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><strong>Take my 60-minute yoga class to take your anxiety down, here<\/strong><\/a><a data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jmD2QQuDd5U&amp;feature=youtu.be\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jmD2QQuDd5U&amp;feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When the pressure\u2019s on, yoga gives us plenty of tools for managing it.
