112. Rewiring Anxiety: How to Use Neuroplasticity for Lasting Change

Hey gang! In today’s episode of Anxiety Rx, I’m diving into one of my favorite topics: neuroplasticity—a fancy word for your brain’s ability to change (yes, even if it feels permanently stuck in anxiety mode). I’ll break down neuroplasticity’s role in how anxiety gets hardwired into your brain—thanks to some rough childhood experiences—and, more importantly, how we can use it to rewire it for peace. My Mind-Body Prescription (MBRx) method shifts the focus from just “thinking your way out of anxiety” to actually feeling your way through it. I’ll walk you through practical steps to break the alarm anxiety cycle, and recognize your body’s anxiety patterns. Bottom line? Anxiety is NOT a life sentence. You’re not broken, and you’re not doomed to feel like this forever. Healing is absolutely possible, and I’m here to show you how. 🎧 Press play and let’s do this!

I am an anxious doctor. Or at least I WAS an anxious doctor. After literally decades of suffering from intractable anxiety, and seeing over 50 different types of healers I found my way to heal my anxiety through very unconventional (for a medical doctor at least) means. In 2013 I was so anxious I considered suicide and a friend suggested I try LSD, and although that scared the crap out of me it showed me the path to healing. You don't have to do LSD to heal, I took it for you! I'm a medical doctor, neuroscientist and intuitive. (I know, common combination!) I found my way out and it is counterintuitive and very non conventional (but not scary!). I will show you the way out too, you just have to listen to me, dammit!
