Welcome to the Anxiety Coaches

Coaches podcast, a relaxing and informative show where we explore anxiety, panic and PTSD sharing how you can overcome them for life.

Oh, Loh how welcome back to the Anxiety Coaches Podcast.

In today's episode, I want to talk about understanding anxiety and your brain's ability to change.

Now this is really exciting for me because I remember one of the things that absolutely changed my mindset when I was

struggling with anxiety and panic and high stress.

I remember when I had finally grasped the idea that it was the same brain, my same mind that got me down the wormhole and that I could also do kind of reverse engineer my way out of it like if I did things

differently that my brain really had the ability to change, that I wasn't stuck.

And so I hope that this will be helpful for you

and that you will be able to have your own kind of light bulb moment

if you are not already there as far as understanding that your brain is able to change and not by a lot of

external things like we're going to talk about it so let's just jump right in

and talk about the changeable brain we used to believe that the brain was hardwired.

And now I'm old enough to this was set in stone

like you only had so many brain cells when you would if you would drink there you

know if you got drunk I think was the if you were inebriated that you were killing brain cells and you were

that none of that was repairable. The brain was hardwired as we reached

adulthood and now we know this is just not so.

We have learned so much more,

but this understanding that we have now of neuroplasticity has given rise to many ways of retraining

the brain, of being able to find our way out. training the anxiety wormhole

anxiety wormhole.
