After years of trying different therapies for his crippling anxiety without success, Dr Russell Kennedy had an epiphany: anxiety does not start in the brain. Anxiety starts in the body, where trauma is stored and physical and emotional perception begin. Alarm bells originating in the body are what trigger those anxious thoughts that we call anxiety, and Dr Kennedy realised that true healing starts only when we learn not to conflate the two. He understood that existing therapies focused only on the mind would never get to the root of the problem - at best, they could help manage symptoms, but they'd never truly heal anxiety. Now fully revised and updated, 'The Anxiety Prescription' blends Dr Kennedy's personal story with medical science, neuroscience and developmental psychology.
