Rewire Your Anxious Brain

How to Use the Neuroscience of Fear to End Anxiety, Panic, and Worry

De: Catherine M. Pittman PhD, Elizabeth M. Karle MLIS

Narrado por: Susannah Mars

Do you ever wonder what is happening inside your brain when you feel anxious, panicked, and worried? In Rewire Your Anxious Brain, psychologist Catherine Pittman and author Elizabeth Karle offer a unique, evidence-based solution to overcoming anxiety, based in cutting-edge neuroscience and research.

In this audiobook you will learn how the amygdala and cortex (both important parts of the brain) are essential players in the neuropsychology of anxiety. The amygdala acts as a primal response, and oftentimes, when this part of the brain processes fear, you may not even understand why you are afraid. By comparison the cortex is the center of worry - that is, obsessing, ruminating, and dwelling on things that may or may not happen.

Pittman and Karle offer simple, specific examples of how to manage fear by tapping in to both of these pathways in the brain. As you listen, you'll gain a greater understanding of how anxiety is created in the brain, and as a result you will feel empowered and motivated to overcome it.

The brain is a powerful tool, and the more you work to change the way you respond to fear, the more resilient you will become. Using the practical self-assessments and proven-effective techniques in this book, you will learn to literally "rewire" the brain processes that lie at the root of your fears.

Excelent!

I liked this book a lot! Most anxiety books only focus on one type of treatment for anxiety, promoting it as the only way to cure it. This book has a much more ample and better explained and sustained ways to cope with anxiety.

Excellent! Both scientific and practical

Causes of anxiety very well explained. Filled with useful solutions. Very very helpful to me.

Great book!

informative, practical and. interestingi learned a lot about the brain and anxiety! I'd recommend this book to anyone!

Understanding ME.

I found the narration too fast and robot like. A lack of connection to the subject.
A slower approach would allow me to take a moment to absorb what I had just heard.
The content was perfect for me to understand some of the physical sensations that I experience coursing through my body on a daily basis.
From hearing this book I have gained valuble insights into my mind. An understanding I didn't previously have.
Thank you to the author for such wonderful understaning into the human brain and expressing it in such a way that I could understand it and myself better.
I now know what I have to do next to continue on my healing journey of embracing me.

A Must Have for Anyone Suffering from Anxiety

this book had been a life saver for me so far. the narrator's voice is calming and easy to listen to. these tools and understanding what's happening in the brain had helped me do much with anxiety and panic attacks.
