Dr. Tracy Dennis-Tiwary: Why Anxiety is Good For You - Even Though it Feels Bad | #030

In this episode, we discuss the difference of fear and anxiety and why the latter is in fact a triumph of human evolution. You will learn what happens in your brain if you get anxious and you will learn some things about the history of anxiety you don’t know yet. We talk about benefits and limitations of the Medical Disease Model and how our mindset is key for so many things. We cannot eradicate anxiety and really, we don’t want to. You learn how to invite anxiety into your life by turning it around and using it for your benefit. The only way out of anxiety is through it and we discuss how anxiety can create hope. We discuss ways to find purpose and what we have to teach our children about technology. Finally, you will hear about the greatest super powers of humans and how to use them for society.
