David Shaw of The Revivalists Finds His Heart Mode

David Shaw’s anxiety was more than just a feeling in his mind, it
was in his ears as well. The frontman of the popular rock band
The Revivalists found himself dealing with hyperacusis, a
condition of extreme hypersensitivity to sounds that would
ordinarily be considered tolerable, which was a hindrance in his
job as lead singer of a rock band. David talks about managing his
anxiety through a variety of approaches and coming to a place of
honesty about who he was and who he wants to be. He also
discusses “heart mode”, the wisest and most caring place he could
operate from and what he’s learned about getting into that state
of being.
