Identify the problem
Many people with panic attacks feel like they come out of the blue. Like them, you might feel like there is nothing in your life that should be making you anxious.
I will help you to identify the source of your panic attacks. Together, we shall look at the things that you do (and do not do) that result in anxiety.
You shall be looking at how you think, as you might not be aware, your patterns of thoughts may be behind some of the panic you experience.
Science and your Brain: Understanding the problem
Understanding your brain is the key to calming down anxiety.
Many of the “hidden” triggers behind anxiety are to do with how your brain works for you.
You will learn what happens in your brain, that result in anxiety. Building on previous parts of the course, you will learn about the connection between your thoughts and what happens in your brain, that sends the alarms bells of anxiety ringing.
Retrain Your Brain
You will learn new habits and new ways of thinking, that will teach your mind to be calm
Help with symptoms
Whether you have a rapid heartbeat, chest pain or a racing mind, right through to having a panic attack, these are due to how your brain perceives danger and your nervous system.
You will learn how to calm your nervous system, and learn how to stop your brain over reacting to day to day events.
Help with thoughts
If you are feeling calm, your mind is calm. If you are feeling anxious, your thoughts race.
The Program will help you to calm down your thought process and reduce negative ones.
The main program is divided into 7 online lessons, taking you through each stage, in the same way you would, if you saw me in person.
