S4: E12 Good Anxiety: Why Your Brain Needs a Bubble Bath


Listen Later

In Part 1 of Good Anxiety: Why Your Brain Needs a Bubble Bath, neuroscientist Wendy Suzuki joins Good Sex at NYU to rethink anxiety—not as something to eliminate, but something you can work with.

Dr. Wendy Suzuki isn’t just studying the brain—she’s lived this work. She shares personal moments that shaped her research, from exercise and memory to grief and resilience, bringing neuroscience out of the lab and into real life.

Join Dr. Suzuki—NYU Professor of Neuroscience, Dean of the College of Arts & Science, and author of Healthy Brain, Happy Life and Good Anxiety—as she breaks down:

  • the difference between “good” vs. “bad” anxiety

  • how stress shows up in the brain and body

  • why movement, breath, and presence are some of the most powerful tools for mental wellbeing

🎧 Tune in—and start building a better relationship with anxiety!
