ANXIETY DISORDERS / LINDEN METHOD

Tweet

The brain rewires itself every time it experiences something new, this is what we call learning. The brain doesn't only learn from positive experiences, it can also experience bad learning and as a result develop bad habits, these are stored as memory and repeating these habits continually reinforces to our brains that they are normal and correct, even though we know logically that they are not! This is exactly what anxiety is, just very powerful and scary symptoms created by a bad habit...FACT! Like all bad habits, anxiety can be stopped but modern medicine doesn't supply an adequate solution except for medication and long therapy sessions which rake up bad memories and can cause more harm than good. The Linden Method acts on the subconscious mind in an area called the Limbic System which is responsible primarily for processing emotional information. The Amygdala is responsible for making decisions regarding anxiety, it is this structure that assists in the development of an anxiety disorder and feeds back information to the brain in order to build the 'anxious habit'. In order to reverse the formation of an anxiety disorder it is vital that any therapy reverses the learning process that the brain has undergone in order to create the subconscious anxious habit that causes it. The only way to do this is by using a structured and direct method to 'build' new responses to normally anxiety provoking situations.
