The Anxiety Dr. Podcast

What if you could shift how you feel by intentionally practicing three powerful emotions?

In this episode we'll explore how gratitude, love and feeling proud of yourself can influence your brain, nervous system, and emotional well-being.

We'll dive into the psychology and biology behind these emotions, why they matter for anxiety recovery, and how you can use them to shift your emotional state.

Shifting your energy isn't about pretending everything is perfect, in fact that doesn't help. It's about understanding the connection between your mind and body and learning how to create more moments of peace, connection, and confidence.

Have you ever had a few great weeks where you felt like you finally conquered your anxiety, only to wake up the next morning with your heart racing, feeling like you’re right back at square one?

If so, you aren't failing—you're just healing. In this episode, we are pulling back the curtain on the myth of linear recovery and exploring why the "two steps forward, one step back" phase is a completely normal, biological part of rewiring your nervous system.

A setback is not a rewind button. Tune in to learn how to drop the pressure and move through the dip with compassion.

What are you telling yourself all day—and is your brain listening?

In this episode of The Anxiety Dr Podcast, Dr. Lisa breaks down the powerful connection between your thoughts, your brain, your body, and anxiety. We talk about what happens when anxious self-talk becomes repetitive, why your body can respond to something you’re only imagining, and how the thoughts you repeatedly practice can strengthen patterns in the brain.

This week, I'm sharing something a little more personal - My own anxiety story.

Before I became The Anxiety Dr, I knew what it was like to live with anxiety, to fear what I was feeling, to fear going crazy, and to wonder if I would ever truly feel like myself again.

In this episode, I'm taking you through my journey: how my anxiety started, what it looked like at its worst, the things I tried, what finally began to change, and how I found my way to recovery.

I'm sharing this because I want you to know that recovery is possible. Your story may look different from mine, and your path may be different too - but where you are today does not have to be where you stay.

This is my anxiety story. And more importantly, my recovery story.

Is it anxiety, or could something else be contributing to how you feel? In this episode, I talk about basic lab work worth discussing with your medical provider when experiencing anxiety symptoms, including iron and ferritin, vitamin B12, blood sugar, vitamin D, and thyroid levels.

Meditation isn't just about calming.

In this episode, I talk about meditation and why it's important in anxiety recovery.

And If you've ever said, "I can't meditate because I can't stop thinking," this episode will help you.

Meditation isn't about clearing yoru mind. It's about learning to notice your thoughts without automatically following them and becoming comfortable with your body again.

You shouldn't meditate because you're afraid of anxiety or because you need to make an uncomfortable feeling disappear. I don't even recommend my patients meditate when they're anxious. We meditate to learn to be mindful.

Meditation: Small practice. Powerful Impact.

Are. you anxious about something that hasn't even happened yet?

What if I panic? What if I feel anxious? What If I can't handle it? What if I'm alone and no one can help me?

That's anticipatory anxiety - and most times, the anticipatory anxiety feels harder than the actual event.

Let's chat about it.
