Anxiety Basics

from Back in Control with David Hanscom, MD Hosted by Mind Body Spirit.fm

Anxiety is the body’s neurochemical reaction to a mental or physical threat. Without it you can’t survive. It’s the sensation created by elevated levels of stress chemicals. Because the unconscious brain is over a million times stronger than the conscious brain, anxiety is not subject to rational psychological interventions. In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom shows that your capacity to enjoy your life depends on your skills in minimizing your levels of stress hormones and stimulating your “play” chemicals. In essence, modern neuroscience has documented why “Laughter is the best medicine.” For more information, visit: http://www.backincontrol.com/anxiety-basics-2
