Can you really rewire your brain to manage anxiety and stress? I’m Megan DeVito, and in this episode, we’ll uncover the remarkable science of neuroplasticity and how it can help you feel calmer and more in control of your life. You’ll learn how your brain, much like muscles in the gym, can be trained to form new neurons and synapses, offering a powerful tool for overcoming anxiety.

We’ll explore how habitual thoughts and behaviors carve lasting neural pathways in our brains, akin to sledding down the same hill over and over. By intentionally redirecting our thoughts and actions—whether it’s picking up a new hobby, shifting our focus from negative to positive, or even overcoming sensory loss—we can create new, beneficial pathways. I’ll share practical strategies to train your brain to respond differently to anxiety, including the importance of handwritten notes to reinforce positive thinking.

Finally, we’ll tackle the common pitfalls of anxiety, such as catastrophizing and all-or-nothing thinking, and how these habits keep us trapped in a cycle of stress. Drawing inspiration from Jen Sincero’s book "You Are a Badass," we’ll discuss how to shift your mental focus towards positive outcomes without falling into the trap of toxic positivity.
