Worry is a habit you can unlearn -mindfulness helps!
Hi Neighbours, Jud Brewer is an associate professor of psychiatry at Brown University, known for his work on meditation and addiction. His book, “Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind,” addresses anxiety, which he understands as a kind of addiction. He has used meditation to help him and his and his clients understand and transform anxiety. Addictions are habits, and habits can be changed.
