How To Stop Feeling So Lost, Anxious, Unmotivated & Stressed | Dr. Russell Kennedy
Manage episode 405065445 series 2868742
Dr. Russell Kennedy, aka “The Anxiety MD.” Dr. Kennedy specializes in the art and neuroscience of helping people recover from anxiety disorders. He knows anxiety from the inside out, as he developed his own anxiety disorder due to growing up with a dad with severe schizophrenia. Dr. Kennedy has degrees and advanced training in medicine, neuroscience and developmental psychology —but it’s not all science, as he is also a certified yoga and meditation teacher and was a professional stand-up comedian for over a decade (no joke!) In his award-winning book and audiobook, ANXIETY RX, he shows a practical, actionable program for anxiety relief that incorporates a combination of the latest in neuroscience with the grounding wisdom of the body with the ultimate goal of relieving the anxious thoughts of the mind.
Today on the show we discuss: why so many people are feeling so lost right now and what you can do about it, why thinking actually causes more anxiety, first thing you should in the morning to stay connected to yourself, how to deal with the unknown, tips for alleviating stress/anxiety, why doing activities you did as a kid will make you more successful and much more.
