PAP 098: Ditching Toxic Stress & Hardwiring Your Brain for Happiness, with Jodi Aman

Anxiety affects more and more kids and adults every day. It’s taking over lives and eroding the confidence of our kids (and ourselves). But, as therapist Jodi Aman outlines in her new book and explains in this episode, anxiety can be dramatically improved and brains can be hardwired for happiness. Join us in this episode to learn about the inner critic, how the “monkey mind” feeds and grows anxiety, and what parents can do to help teens and themselves reduce anxiety and be more confident. Happiness is attainable for everyone when the work is done to shift your mindset.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beautifully-complex--6137613/support.
