More Than Just a Feeling: The Brain and Body on High Alert

This post goes beyond the typical conversation about anxiety to explore its neurological and physiological roots. It delves into the brain's alarm system—the amygdala—and how it triggers the body's fight-or-flight response, leading to a cascade of physical symptoms. The post explains how this mind-body connection can create a relentless feedback loop and offers a new perspective on anxiety as a predictable biological response, not just a feeling. It's a must-read for anyone looking to understand why their body feels like it's on high alert.
