Dr. Peter Attia & Dr.Josh Spitalnick - Understanding Anxiety

If you know me, you know how much I respect Dr. Peter Attia's work on everything health. This particular episode is interesting for a number of reasons, particularly as it relates to health anxiety, but also general anxiety as well. The video dives deep into psychological, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral layers of anxiety, highlighting why avoidance transforms ordinary concern into an anxiety disorder. You'll learn the difference between worries and worrying, thoughts and thinking, and how these patterns play out in real life scenarios. Evidence-based treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy are explained with relatable case studies and humour. If you want science-backed advice, fresh insight, and actionable steps to tackle anxiety—including health anxiety, OCD, and more—this is a must-watch. Just make sure you set aside an hour or two. ;)
