350 | How Anxiety Circuits Hijack Your Brain | And What To Do
Episode 386
Wednesday, 22 April, 2026
On today's episode, I break down the brain circuits behind anxiety—the amygdala, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and the HPA axis—and show how they create panic, overgeneralization, and sleeplessness. I then explain, in plain terms, why anxiety feels overwhelming and how chronic stress weakens the brain's safety signals. The episode also outlines practical recovery steps, especially exposure therapy: intentionally facing feared situations, creating prediction errors, and building new safety memories so the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus can override the alarm. It’s a clear roadmap for moving from fear to freedom. —The Anxiety Recovery Program— https://unpluganxiety.com/my-program/ —1 on 1 Coaching— https://unpluganxiety.com/1-on-1-coaching/ —The Website— https://unpluganxiety.com
