TS 112 - Why Anxiety Hijacks Your Brain ...

The Tapping Solution Podcast
About this episode

Anxiety isn't a character flaw—it's your brain's overzealous security system. In this video, I break down the psychology of why anxiety happens, what's actually occurring in your brain during panic, and how EFT Tapping uniquely interrupts the anxiety cycle. You'll learn why traditional coping strategies often fail, how anxiety creates a self-reinforcing loop, and why your brain mistakes modern stress for life-threatening danger. Based on cognitive-behavioral principles and neuroscience research, I'll show you exactly how Tapping works as a pattern interrupt that can calm that feeling of panic within minutes. Studies show Tapping reduces anxiety by an average of 40% per session. Whether you struggle with generalized anxiety, panic attacks, or stress-induced worry, understanding the psychology behind your symptoms—and having a tool that actually works—changes everything.
