Hey Guys, I hope all is well. I've been pretty swamped lately but starting tomorrow I'll finally get a chance to chill out a bit. I'll be traveling to Cancun tonight and staying there for about a week. I won't be working while I'm there, so I thought it would be a good time to post a new podcast. Lately I've been receiving a ton of email about various issues related to health anxiety. So I thought it would be helpful to revisit this issue but also provide more detail about the different kinds of health anxiety that people struggle with. Like
Two Proven Methods to Help Reprogram Your Anxious Brain
When you become an anxious person one of the first things to go out the window is your ability to tame fearful thoughts. This, of course, makes total sense. When you become sensitized by anxiety you literally make contact with the dark side of your mind and come to be over-focused on death and derangement. In your mind these two things aren't just likely outcomes of your ordeal, but imminent threats that need to be warded off. However, what's interesting is that if you want to get better you have to do the opposite of fight or escape.

Paul Answers Listener Email
In this week's episode of the AG Show I shift gears a bit and just answer a few emails. Actually, this wasn't even my idea. An AG Show listener suggested it a few weeks back and I thought it would be a nice change of pace. I chose 6 or 7 emails that cover a wide range of issues to help sharpen your anti-anxiety skills, or help you fall asleep, it really depends on how soothing you think my voice is. Perhaps the most interesting part of this week's podcast was the opportunity to hear just how many different ways anxiety can impact a person's
This Is Why Anxious People Catastrophize
No, it's not because you're doing something wrong. All anxious people tend to blow their problems out of proportion to at least some extent. Sure, some people do it more than others, but the reality is that if you feel anxious you tend to view minor problems as potential nightmares. The question is why?

We can use many words to describe what that is, but most basically it boils down to

Let's be honest, you're a little crazy. You want to know something interesting though? So is everyone else. In fact, researchers have known for sometime that virtually everyone has "crazy" thoughts. What is a crazy thought? Well, I'd say it's any thought that you would prefer not to share with others because it could cause them to think that you are nuts.
