Anxiety Rx

When we are "anxious" our automatic urge is to figure a way out of the feeling. But what if the problem with anxiety is too much thinking to start with?

You can't fix over thinking with more thinking, right? You must learn how to FEEL your way out.

Many of us worriers have a "sunscreen" view of the world in that we block out 99% of the safety that is all around us.

If you can't see and commit to the world as a safe place, of course we are going to stay in ALARM.

If we believe the focus on threat keeps us safe, we will experience the exact opposite!

Welcome back to another episode!
In my most vulnerable moments, battling with the crippling grip of anxiety, the thought haunted me: "Is this it? Is this life?". It was a cycle of fear that I lived in, punctuated only by fleeting moments of happiness.
Traditional therapies, while helpful, often fell short. They didn't heal; they offered temporary relief.
Join me this week where I reveal the transformative essence of MBRX—Your Mind Body Prescription for Permanent Anxiety Healing.
MBRX is my labor of love, crafted to challenge the traditional narrative.
This isn't just another program; it's a revolutionary approach born from a place of true understanding and a desire to heal, not just cope.
This episode is a heartfelt invitation to a community seeking a deep, lasting change.
I've set aside the conventional for a method that truly works, reflected in countless testimonials and my own life. MBRX is about reconnection—with the child within, with our bodies, our minds and with a life of calm and presence.
Tune in as I delve into the power of MBRX while answering some of your questions about the program!
If you've ever felt victimized by your own mind, if you've ever been told you have to live with anxiety as a life sentence, this conversation is for you.
Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG: @theanxietymd if you have any questions.

Do you allow yourself to receive? Or are you doing most of the people pleasing/giving to others?

When we see the world as a place that does not nourish us enough, as was often our childhood circumstance, we learn not to expect the world to help us, and actually CREATE a world that stops feeding us.

We often BLOCK and RESIST any help the world does give us, and then blame the world for not filling our needs... INABILITY TO RECEIVE is a chapter in my book "Anxiety Rx", and if we don't see how we block good things coming to us, we will sabotage our own perception of the world, seeing it as a place where we don't get enough.

But often we do get "enough", but just resist receiving it!

Hey everyone, Dr. Russ here. This episode of The AnxietyRX Podcast hits a little closer to home than usual. My mom's health is declining, and on top of that, I've been editing my book. Let's just say my brain is fried.

Because of this personal situation, you might notice some bumps in the podcast this week. I apologize in advance, and I truly appreciate your understanding.

That being said, the show must go on! And today's topic is something we can all relate to: emotions. You know, those things we sometimes spend way too much time overthinking?

Here's the thing: what if the key to feeling better wasn't about overanalyzing every single feeling, but actually allowing ourselves to feel them?

There's a power in simply experiencing emotions authentically, without dissecting them to pieces.

This episode is for anyone who's tired of being a prisoner of their own thoughts. We'll explore the science behind emotions, but also the real human experience of feeling them.

Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG: @theanxietymd if you have any questions.
