Going Beyond Anxiety: How to Overcome Dread, Fear, and Everyday Unease to Create a Life That Matters

The bestselling author of Unwinding Anxiety reveals how we can move beyond the constant sense of dread we feel in our daily lives and truly flourish

When you wake up in the morning, do you feel dread, stress, fear, or just the general sense that something is wrong? It might not be dramatic, just an insistent hum of unease that follows you through the day. These days, the nonstop stream of destabilizing current events and ongoing uncertainty can make us feel that this low-level, yet pervasive sense of heightened vigilance is normal. But, as renowned psychiatrist and neuroscientist Judson Brewer has found in two decades of clinical research, the feeling is not coming from outside. It is a learned habit loop: The brain, trying to protect you, locks into a pattern of vigilance that feeds on itself long after any actual threat has passed. The good news is that the same brain mechanisms that create these loops can dissolve them. Based on his groundbreaking research and clinical work, the program Dr. Brewer outlines in this book will help you:

• Reset your brain in the moment to stop looping worries and overthinking
• Understand the brain loop that keeps dread going, and the exact point where it can be interrupted
• Navigate everyday dread traps like “doomscrolling” triggers and more
• Create mental habits that stick to help you live with resilience, compassion, and joy
• Learn how to sit with discomfort, and discover it is not only survivable, but also that learning to tolerate it is what stops anxiety from hijacking your choices
• Use adversity as fuel for renewed purpose and meaning

With the practical and powerful tools in Going Beyond Anxiety, you will develop the capacity to meet the world as it is without being diminished by it. This is a new, science-backed approach to building a life that gets stronger under pressure, not just one that survives it.
