Mastering Change: Dr. Fred Riley's Tips for Tackling Anxiety

When we're in that sympathetic nervous system, that is in the midbrain, that's in the survival part of our brain, and we need to figure out how to change gears to the prefrontal cortex.
Change can feel like a rollercoaster, can't it? In this episode of 'Counseling On Demand', Dr. Fred Riley dives deep into why our brains crave consistency and how this affects our anxiety levels when things shift. Ever wondered why you feel so uneasy when your routine gets disrupted? Dr. Riley explains it's all about your brain's automatic responses. He shares how seeing these reactions as evidence, rather than problems, can make a world of difference.
From practical tips like breathing exercises to simply taking a walk, Dr. Riley offers strategies to help manage those anxious feelings. This episode isn't just about coping; it's about embracing change as a natural part of life. By tuning in, you'll gain a better understanding of how to handle life's twists and turns with a bit more ease. Perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed by change, this episode is a must-listen for practical advice and a touch of humor.
