As it turns out, the amygdala and cortex--both important parts of the brain--are notorious sources of anxiety. One is in charge of our "fight or flight" response, while the other is a hub for worry, obsession, and rumination. So, how can you take charge of these powerful brain functions and stop anxiety at the source?</p><p>Based on cutting-edge neuroscience and research, <em><strong>Rewire Your Anxious Brain</strong></em> offers a unique, evidence-based solution to overcoming anxiety. In this book, you'll discover how anxiety is created in your brain, as well as tips and exercises to put you in control of your anxious thoughts and reactions. The brain is a powerful tool--isn't it time you made it work for you, instead of against you? By creating small, positive changes in your life, you can literally "rewire" your brain to minimize anxiety and start living with courage and vitality. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"From fears to phobias and panic, this how-to guide unravels the mysteries of worry, then delivers strategies that will lead you to a resilient life."<br /> --Reid Wilson, PhD, author of Don't Panic</p><p>"Fear, worry, anxiety, panic, and depression block individuals from living fully. This book does an excellent job of unraveling the mysteries of the brain and how it causes anxiety, thus allowing individuals to take control of their symptoms and manage their lives more effectively. I have used the concepts in this book in treating veterans with PTSD and have seen people become much more functional. Highly-recommended reading."<br /> --Susan Myers, RN, LCSW, BCD, holistic nurse and board certified diplomate in clinical social work</p><p>"This is a unique contribution to a wide array of self-help books for those who suffer with anxiety. The authors explain what we know about the workings of the brain in a fluid style that neither talks down to nor overwhelms the reader. This science becomes the foundation for decreasing bewilderment, fear, and shame. There are straightforward and logical recommendations for modifying patterns of anxiety that originate from, and are maintained by, differing brain circuitry."<br /> --Sally Winston PsyD, codirector of the Anxiety and Stress Disorders Institute of Maryland</p><p>"Catherine Pittman, a trained behavioral scientist, brings her deep scientific understanding of fear, anxiety, and learning to the world of personal experiences. Few scientists can make this transition from scientific communication to public communication. Pittman, along with coauthor Elizabeth Karle, does this very well indeed. Readers should not be put off by the early presentations of brain mechanisms, because they are surprisingly readable and informative. Moreover, it is information that provides a foundation for readers who have anxiety challenges to use later as they develop effective coping strategies. Readers should find the clear expositions of the where's, why's, and how's of anxiety and its management to be an anxiety-reducing read."<br /> --J. Bruce Overmier, PhD, professor emeritus in the graduate faculties of psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive science at the University of Minnesota</p><br>
