Anxiety Rx: A New Prescription for Anxiety Relief from the Doctor Who Created It

Product Information

My guest on this episode, believes that understanding where this feeling lives inside your body is the key to treating anxiety – for good. Today’s clip is from episode 370 of the podcast with medical doctor and neuroscientist, Dr Russell Kennedy. In this book, I'll show you exactly what is going on in your mind and your body and what you can do about it. Now I’m not free of anxiety yet (or alarm should I say) but this is because I need to practice what Dr Kennedy preaches every single day - the things he says about the ego dragon are true and it’s certainly not easy but it’s simple. The bottom line is that some people may enjoy his personal musings, and he certainly makes some very interesting points that you won’t read elsewhere.

The only book to give a clear answer on how to actually get out of the cycle of chronic overthinking and anxiety. It took me years of struggling through painful, debilitating worrying before I finally unlocked new, non-traditional methods to ease and heal my pain.If you are fortunate enough not to have anxiety, you will gain a better insight and appreciation for those who live with it daily.

Russell has really gone down the rabbit hole to understand at a variety of levels how we normally think and feel with our bodies and our minds.

I am a trauma informed somatic psychotherapist, I have read this book repeatedly and felt compelled to push others to read this also, simply out of sheer compassion and love for my fellow humans! There are certainly aspects of using your mind, but his main premise is you cant stay in the burning house of your mind and try to put out the fire, you must get out and then objectively look from outside back into the burning house once you are safe.
