You’ll learn:What anxiety is and what it isn'tHow you should think about itHow do you know if you have an irrational fear or rational fearWhy anxiety seems to come out of the blueHow to stop anxiety in its tracksI continue to demystify anxiety by explaining its biological roots so you understand how it behaves. This will help you so much.Anxiety is the leftover fear response when you’re not in physical danger. It’s caused by adrenaline. The biology of anxiety, triggered by the amygdala and adrenaline, can be mapped, and the signals it sends to your brain can be explained. I get right to the heart of how it all works so you can learn what to do about it.I go over rational and irrational fear, the mammalian brain versus the reptilian brain, and offer two things to do to calm your fear, anxiety, worries, and or panick, in the moment. “Anxiety wants us to be upset about some possibility of something remote happening in the future. It has you suffering now as if that would protect you somehow from that future suffering.” - Dr. Jodi AmanResources discussed in this episode:Order the Book: Anxiety . . .
