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.

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.

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.

This is for educational purposes only; always consult with your health care provider.

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.

Most people think anxiety only shows up as panic attacks or racing thoughts. But long before those symptoms appear, anxiety can quietly begin influencing your choices, your routine, and the way you live your life.

Anxiety isn't just stealing your peace - it's stealing your trust in yourself.

Over time, anxiety teaches us to question everything. We stop trusting our bodies, our thoughts, our emotions, and our decisions. We wonder if we'll ever recover, if we're capable of handling discomfort, or if we're somehow different from everyone else.

This hinders our recovery. Preventing us from feeling safe.

Let's explore this and how to start trusting ourselves again.

Why does anxiety make us afraid of things that once felt so simple? Why do we begin to fear our symptoms, our thoughts, our next panic attack, or even the possibility that we'll never feel like ourselves again?

The truth is, anxiety doesn't just create fear - it teaches us what to fear next.

Join Dr. Lisa as we explore why anxiety slowly convinces us that we're unsafe, causing us to question our bodies, our minds, and our future. You'll learn why recovery isn't about never feeling anxious again - it's about learning to trust yourself again.

One of the questions I'm asked most often is, " Dr. Lisa, how do you spend all day listening to people talk about their anxiety without getting triggered yourself?"

The trust is that years ago, it probably would have. But Recovery changes more than your symptoms - it changes the way your brain responds to fear.

In this episode, I'm sharing why other people's anxiety no longer becomes my anxiety, what healthy emotional boundaries look like, and how learning to trust your brain and body changes everything.

Because the goal isn't to avoid conversations about anxiety. The goal is to reach a place where they no longer feel threatening.
