18. Overcoming Anxiety, A Drug-Free Approach in the Digital Age
In this deep dive episode on anxiety, Dr. Tony Ebel discusses the anxiety epidemic impacting kids, teens and young adults today. He explains how anxiety has physical and neurological roots, often starting with triggers in pregnancy, birth trauma, and early childhood development that shift the nervous system into a stuck sympathetic "fight or flight" state. This leads to dysautonomia and an imbalance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.While factors like technology overuse, lack of movement, and toxins can worsen anxiety, Dr. Ebel explains that the core issue lies in subluxation and nervous system dysregulation impacting key brain areas like the cerebellum, vagus nerve, amygdala and prefrontal cortex. The solution lies in addressing the root causes through Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care that helps restore nervous system balance and function. This allows kids to get out of the anxiety storm and experience their optimal potential.Key Topics Covered:00:01:05 - The anxiety epidemic impacting kids, teens and young adults 00:10:34 - Symptoms and definition of anxiety 00:16:57 - Story illustrating the social/emotional challenges today's teens face 00:22:24 - Startling statistics on the dramatic rise in anxiety and depression 00:26:31 - Preparing kids to face adversity and build resilience 00:35:50 - Hannah's story - anxiety with physical manifestations 00:43:58 - Anxiety is a brain-based disorder with physical roots 00:53:51 - Three overlooked factors that trigger anxiety, starting in early development 01:07:14 - How the brain and nervous system are meant to develop from the bottom-up 01:13:32 - Subluxation, birth trauma and inhibited vagus nerve function as triggers 01:19:56 - How specific areas of the brain are impacted in anxiety 01:25:51 - Dysautonomia - the nervous system imbalance at the core of anxiety 01:28:08 - How neurologically-focused chiropractic addresses the root causes of anxiety 01:34:06 - The life-changing impacts of restoring optimal nervous system functionFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read our “What is Anxiety?” article, as well as other informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.
