In this episode, we explore the pervasive issue of living in a constant state of high alert and its impact on our anxiety levels. Drawing insights from Alan Gordon's book "The Way Out," we discuss how modern life's constant bombardment of notifications and alerts keeps us perpetually stressed. By examining statistics from the Gallup 2019 Global Emotions Report, we highlight the prevalence of stress in today's society and delve into how our brains, evolved for a low-stimulation environment, struggle to cope with this constant high alert state. Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical tips for reducing anxiety by breaking free from the high alert habit, helping you cultivate a calmer and more balanced life.
