Hello lassies and lads, welcome to Coaching and a Cup of tea with Mummabear. I have a very special guest here today who actually did a very, very good Scottish accent. And maybe he will do it for us. Dr. Russ Kennedy, welcome to my podcast.

Dr Russ Kennedy  00:56

Oh, it's nice to be here. And at some point in the podcast, I'll break into my scar. Right now, I'm currently Canadian. So we'll just stick with that for now.

Melissa Wiggins  01:05

All right, we got it. So I wanted to have you on the podcast because I read your incredible book anxiety, our aid anxiety prescription. I'm just fascinated by all of your work. And I just really wanted for the audience to hear about the way you're trying to change the way people look at anxiety, because that's what this book is really doing.

Dr Russ Kennedy  01:30

Yeah. Yeah, it's really about, you know, so much of anxiety therapy involves changing the thoughts of your mind, right? And what if the thoughts of your mind are the problem? What if they're just the symptom? So you know, like you if you have, if you have a viral infection, you have a fever, the fever isn't the problem. It's the viral infection, right? So, so what happens, I believe in anxiety is we get these old traumas from typically from childhood, but they can be inherited, you know, there's a bunch of ways that we get trauma into our system. And that trauma sort of reverberates that trauma energy reverberates inside of our body.
