About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Break free from anxiety and be free to live a full, happy life with internationally renowned psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr Judson Brewer - based on over 20 years of research and his simple habit-breaking programme.

We are living through one of the most anxious periods any of us can remember. Whether facing issues as public as a pandemic and political upheaval or as personal as having kids at home fighting the urge to reach for the wine bottle every night, we are feeling overwhelmed and out of control. But in this timely book, Judson Brewer explains how to uproot anxiety at its source using brain-based techniques and small hacks accessible to anyone.

We think of anxiety as everything from mild unease to full-blown panic. But it's also what drives the addictive behaviours and bad habits we use to cope (e.g. stress eating, procrastination, doom scrolling and social media). Plus, anxiety lives in a part of the brain that resists rational thought. So we get stuck in anxiety habit loops that we can't think our way out of or use willpower to overcome. Dr Brewer teaches us map our brains to discover our triggers, defuse them with the simple but powerful practice of curiosity and to train our brains using mindfulness and other practices that his lab has proven can work.

Distilling more than 20 years of research and hands-on work with thousands of patients, including Olympic athletes and coaches, and leaders in government and business, Dr Brewer has created a clear, solution-oriented programme that anyone can use to feel better - no matter how anxious they feel.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

An amazing insight

It was really insightful to understand how our minds work. The reading speed should have been a little less. At times, I missed a couple of important sentences and had to rewind. You cannot afford to ignore even a small sentence in this book. Loved it. Thanks to the author.

For laymen or medical professionals

Don't know if it's me but the book is uite technical in terms of concepts and methods and the author refers to certain App many times. Checked online and found that it's a paid app, nothing wrong but for someone willing to try the book.

A must read

You rarely get a book which gives practical advice on dealing with anxiety but is backed by sound scientific research. Unwinding anxiety manages to do both.
Give it a go, it might just transform your life.
