Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast - A Podcast for Neurodivergent Creatives. How to Feel Safe. This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD."
No matter who you are, we all have a very deep and profound desire to feel safe, peaceful, and secure.
In this episode, we'll discuss how to hack your brain into feeling safe. The anxiety and fear mechanism is ancient, and has kept the human race alive so we could be here in this moment. However, this primal part of our brain, when subjected to the modern world, often detects physical threats where there aren't any, leading to a constant and low level feeling of anxiety. This can reduce our mental capacity and lead us into distraction, often shrinking our world and masking those positive opportunities that are available to us.
Specifically, we'll discuss:
The biological purpose of fear and anxiety
The brain chemistry of feeling safe
Scientifically proven ways to feel safe and minimize anxiety
Specific meditation practices that can quiet the mind and create deep feelings of safety and stability
Long term strategies that can bring an overall sense of calm and peace into your life
