EP95: Anxiety is a Smoke Alarm with Inner Genius Health Founder, Traci Potterf PhD Legends
-
- Self-Improvement
If you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you are not defective or broken, you need nurture. Anxiety is a smoke alarm for something off in your body. We are living in ways that go against our evolutionary biology.
In this podcast, Traci and I discuss:
*Why we have an anxiety epidemic (20% diagnosed disorder, 80% struggling)…
*Why seeing anxiety simply as a genetic chemical imbalance that requires meds is outdated, unscientific and has made the mental health crisis worse, not better.
*The reality of psych meds, like antidepressants and benzos for chronic anxiety
*Why people should not give up even if they feel they’ve tried everything… There are science-backed natural solutions when you know how to find and fix the hidden causes using the intelligence of nature (case studies as examples)
Even if you’ve had anxiety for decades or all your life and even if there are a lot of people in your family with mental health issues, it’s still possible for you to free yourself. It’s normal to experience anxiety as an occasional emotion, but it does not have to be a debilitating disorder.
