How does the Linden Method for anxiety work?

Answer 1

The Linden Method is a solution you should consider. It was very useful in treating my father and is a non drugs based solution.

The basis of the technique is an understanding of the brain and how it works. Different parts of the brain do different things. One part in particular is responsible for anxiety, called the amygdale. It is a part of the brain which tells the rest of our brain when to be afraid and triggers the "fight or flight" response.

In a healthy brain, the amygdala heightens our senses and allows us to flee from danger, avoid an attack, or gives us the energy to fend off a predator. But in an Anxiety suffer their amygdala is always "on", leading to the brain providing fight or flight signals all the time This causes the anxiety, panic attacks and feeling of being on edge. This can cause serious long-term health problems because of the adrenaline that is constantly being pumped out of the brain.

The Linden Method re-trains your brain to behave like a normal healthy brain, stopping the problem. This is done through cognitive behavioral therapy. This actually changes your brain physically using techniques that change the way that you think. This process is called neuroplasticity.

In the Linden Method it's creator, and past suffer, Charles, guides you through the steps to change the way that you think, breaking your personal patterns of anxiety and re-set your brain to function in a controlled manner.

The course also teaches you lifestyle changes that will help ease your anxiety. This includes changes in your diet controlling blood sugar levels that affect anxiety, the use of exercise and also provides instruction on how to change your day to day habits that can lead to your own anxiety.
