Unwinding Anxiety

How can we break our addictions and bad habit cycles? Addiction psychiatrist, mindfulness training expert, and associate professor of psychiatry at the School of Medicine at Brown University Dr. Jud Brewer joins us for this special episode of the Bregman Leadership Podcast. While we discuss his book, Unwinding Anxiety, we forgo the usual interview and instead, Jud coaches me to best demonstrate his method. He uses my example of overworking to teach us about habit mapping, anxiety, dopamine, and positive/negative prediction errors. Listen now.
