Dr. Judson Brewer breaks down why anxiety isn’t just an emotion—it’s a habit. We explore how worry gets rewarded, why willpower is a myth, and the real reason so many of us stay stuck. He dismantles the biggest lies we believe about anxiety, from the idea it improves performance to the false comfort of soothing behaviors. At the end of the day, it’s not about managing anxiety. It’s about unlearning it.Timestamps: 00:00 Jud's Experience With Panic Attacks01:34 Who Was Jud's Dr. Jud Brewer? 02:53 Anxiety Is A Habit05:49 What We Get Wrong About Anxiety 13:03 How People Relate To Anxiety Today 17:01 Anxiety Is Malleable19:14 Anxiety Is Supposed To Be Short Lived 20:32 Relationship Between Stress & Anxiety21:52 The 3 Gears26:48 Writing, Visualization, & Naming In First Gear27:56 The Line Between Hard & Painful 30:18 Willpower Is A Myth33:13 Second Gear35:55 Personal Experiences & Third Gear40:38 Relationship Between Anxiety & Soothing41:57 The Best Thing Sometimes Is...Nothing43:29 Breaking Bad Habits & Building Good Habits45:14 Jud's Self-Meditation Retreats46:42 Why vs. How51:30 Connect With Dr. Judson BrewerSend us a textThank you so much for listening.
