Unpacking Anxiety: Healing the Body’s Alarm System with Dr. Russell Kennedy
6 months ago
- Anxiety is a Feeling Problem: Anxiety is an alarm state stuck in the body, often rooted in unresolved childhood trauma. Thoughts are just the “smoke,” while the bodily sensation is the “fire.”
- Healing Through Sensation Without Explanation: True healing comes from noticing the alarm in your body without overlaying worry thoughts, using techniques like body scanning and the “SHOULD” approach (See, Hear, Open, Understand, Love, Defend).
- Medication as Support, Not Solution: Medications can help temporarily, but lasting healing requires addressing the underlying trauma and bodily alarm patterns. Tools like essential oils and amino acids can aid the process.
