ANXIETY & HELP FOR ADULTS

Is it difficult for you to shake the feelings of stress or restlessness?

Do you feel constant and overwhelming panic or unease?

If this sounds familiar, your brain may have difficulty processing the feelings of fear and emotion. Feelings of anxiety are normal, but constant anxiety is something that can be a barrier to career advancement, relationships, social gatherings, or even school.

You may feel like you've been applying coping strategies to deal with your feelings of anxiety. But you are not alone. At Brain Balance, our team is here to help you. We understand what it feels like to cope with these symptoms and we have a plan to help.

Anxiety: What is Happening in the Brain?

The first step to managing anxiety is understanding what's happening in the brain. Once you understand the science behind what's happening, you can move forward in helping yourself to better cope with your feelings and manage your responses to stress.

Help with Stress Resilience and Emotional Regulation

We all experience stress and anxiety, but not all of our bodies react to stress and anxiety in the same way. Our brain’s ability to take in and coordinate information can negatively impact how we feel and how we respond to stress. While one situation may be easily handled by one person, another person may feel anxiety causing them to shut down or react outwardly.

Did you know that the connections in our brains impacts the way we experience life and take in and process emotions? A person’s ability to regulate anxiety and worry less relies heavily on brain connectivity or the formation of information pathways in the brain.

When new pathways in the brain are formed, the brain’s ability to perform cognitive and physical tasks is improved. The strength and integration of our cognitive and physical skills build our ability to have successful executive functions - impacting our attention, decision-making and comprehension. We can notice these positive changes in our mood, memory, focus, behavior, social skills and relationships.

What can be done for anxiety?

The Brain Balance Program is uniquely designed to focus on building brain connectivity rather than implementing coping strategies for life to stay calm and worry less. The program uses a combination of sensory engagement exercises, physical exercises, cognitive activities and healthy nutrition to strengthen the brain pathways needed to reduce worrisome thoughts and improve the ability to handle stress.
