Episode notes

Worrying ain't planning andt but it feels like it. A lot of t times, ike i am doing something constructive, because at least i have my mind on the problem. It doesn't feel like i'm avoiding the problem when i'm worrying about the problem. That's what perseverations all about. We're just constantly worrying that something might happen. I like that word, by the way, icause tis hard to say perseveration. But what would you say as the definition? What is the cardcord definition of that?

In this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer, a neuroscientist and addiction psychiatrist, discusses the biological origins of anxiety and how to unwind our feedback loops using techniques derived from his lab’s research.

Since his last appearance on the show, Dr. Jud has written and published a book which is now a NYT bestseller titled Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind which he describes as, “a clinically proven step-by-step plan to break the cycle of worry and fear that drives anxiety and addictive habits.”
