In this audio-only course, neuroscientist Dr. Wendy Suzuki talks about how you can leverage your anxiety to solve problems and boost your well-being. While anxiety may not have obvious upsides to most people, Wendy talks about the six superpowers that anxiety can give you: resilience, compassion, flow, mindset, focus, and creativity. She also gives advice on how to get bad anxiety under control, the proven benefits of exercise in stimulating good neurochemicals, the advantages of short meditation sessions over longer ones, how to turn your "what if" list into an action list, and how to transform your moments of anxiety into opportunities for creativity.
This course was created by Pete Mockaitis of "How to Be Awesome at Your Job". We are pleased to offer this training in our library.
