Judson Brewer M.D., Ph.D. joins me on the Calmer You podcast this week, touching on his new book Unwinding Anxiety. Dr. Brewer is an American psychiatrist, neuroscientist and New York Times best-selling author. He studies the neural mechanisms of mindfulness using standard and real-time fMRI, and has translated research findings into programs to treat addictions.


His research focuses on how our brains form negative behavior patterns, bad habits and addictions, and the specific techniques needed to create lasting change. Unwinding Anxiety, how to train your brain to heal your mind, is his latest book.


We discuss:

- Why we're so anxious

- How anxiety can actually be a habit

- How does mindfulness help with anxiety (it's not what most people think)

- A powerful mindset shift for anxiety
