It's always magnificent when it comes to neuroscience. However, brewer said everything except how to unwind anxiety.

Simple concept with a few steps and some ya ya that was also fine. There were some extra words, extra bits, for reinforcement that sent me daydreaming. I bet my brain was looking for something novel. I’m glad I took notes. My favorite parts were the section on noting and my new favorite anxiety mantra “Why doesn’t matter”. Also I am going to be reading all my boss’s emails with extra wide eyes from now on.

After reading some other reviews I think I've made the right decision to stop. The author just does a lot of reiterating of other publishings and often tells too many barely related to the topic stories. Good book to open a random page to and read a random good nugget of information. Not a easy book to read cover to cover. Especially having already read the source materials.

This was a fascinating read & I learned a lot about anxiety and how it forms. He made learning about my fear very interesting and it kept me engaged.

You’ll want to sit down and really practice what he teaches. I took the steps he laid out and created my own anxiety map— cheers to hopefully overcoming my anxiety in the future!
