Rewire Your Anxious Brain

Melanie Richards

A lot of books tend to share similar strategies for managing anxiety, and it really comes down to, “does the author frame these strategies in language that resonates with you?”

There were familiar shades to the (science-backed) advice here, but this is the most hopeful a book has left me. Somehow the authors have managed to tell me things I have heard before about where to focus the brain in an empowering, not patronizing manner. I think what really helped was the focus on how you can literally change your neural pathways; the most-used pathways are strongest. Lately I’d noticed in my own life that I was carving a deeper and deeper rut on some anxious thought loops. So it was a great time to hear, “yes, that’s real, and you can use it to your advantage.”
