Outsmart Your Anxious Brain

Speaker Dr. David Carbonell

Anxiety is a powerful force. It makes us question our decisions and ourselves, worry about the future, and it fills our days with dread and emotional turbulence.

But what if we understood that anxiety is merely a trick of the mind, trying to convince us we’re in danger?

Anxiety is like a magician behind the curtain, playing subtle tricks on us to convince us that we’re in danger when we’re not. When we understand this, we can observe our anxious feelings with some distance.

It’s time to outsmart your worry and anxiety.

In this webinar you will learn (Learning Objectives):

  • The “trick” of chronic anxiety.
  • The ten most powerful techniques based in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you respond differently to panic, anxiety, worry, and phobias.

It’s time to outsmart your worry and anxiety. Learn how in this webinar!
