Train Your Brain to Be Less Anxious
You can train your brain to be less anxious — just like a muscle.
Anxiety isn’t your fault, but how you respond to it can reshape your brain over time.
Every time you face a fear, challenge a thought, or stay grounded in the present moment, you’re rewiring your nervous system to say: “This feels uncomfortable, but I’m still in control.”
You’re not broken. Your brain is just doing what it learned — and you can teach it something new.

In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/c...
