Episode 2.2: Dr. Jud Brewer

Dr. Jud Brewer (neuroscientist, NYT bestselling author, Director of Research and Innovation at Brown University’s Mindfulness Center, executive medical director at Sharecare Inc.) brings so much wisdom to the Anxiety Lab. He shares his breakthrough approach to tackling anxiety using mindfulness. We talk about treating anxiety like a habit, a better way to change behavior than “I should,” mindful eating, having imaginary conversations with people in our heads, and not being able to stop worrying about something stupid even when we know it’s something stupid. We also get pretty granular about planning anxiety. You can find Dr. Jud at drjud.com, on IG (dr.jud) and twitter (judbrewer), and his incredible book is called Unwinding Anxiety.
