In Episode 3, the hosts explore illness anxiety, which is a condition marked by preoccupation with acquiring a serious illness as well as hypersensitivity to physical sensations which are interpreted as indicative of an underlying illness. The relationship between illness anxiety and fear of death and dying is explored, as well as how embodiment—our relationship to our bodies and our experiences of being a body—helps us deal with illness anxiety.
