Social Anxiety | Change Your Brain And Live!

I am always looking for ways to help someone overcome social anxiety, and I stumbled upon a book that I think is fantastic. It is called Change Your Brain Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness. I know, long title!

To back up for a second, are you seriously trying to overcome social anxiety? Or are you like so many, just trying to cope with it and try to just live day to day? Change is very scary to some people, for many reasons, but you need to change your brain and thoughts if you are going to cure your social anxiety.

It can be done, because I have done it; social anxiety no longer runs nor ruins my life. I actually enjoy going places and living! It is a breath of fresh air, and it truly feels good.

Anyway, back to the book. Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness was written by Daniel G. Amen. He is a a psychiatrist and neuroscientist who has done extensive research on the brain.

In the book, he explains how the brain works, what happens when things go wrong, and how to optimize brain function. Some of the chapters include:
  • Looking into love and depression
  • Looking into anxiety and fear
  • Mastering fear
  • Looking into worry and obsession
  • Brain Dos and Brain Don'ts
  • and much more

Change Your Brain, Change Your Life may be a little more technical than most books, but it is still getting great reviews.

If you are looking for a less technical book, but still value great information, Daniel G. Amen has several great
self-help resources available. Whatever you do, don't just sit on the sidelines, get in the game of life and enjoy it!
