TED: How to calm your anxiety, from a neuroscientist | Wendy Suzuki

The video discusses how anxiety, often seen as negative, can be transformed into a helpful tool. It introduces two science-based methods to manage anxiety: breath work and movement. Breath work involves deep breathing to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, while movement releases mood-boosting neurochemicals. Real-world examples demonstrate the effectiveness of these techniques. By managing anxiety, individuals can better evaluate stressors, communicate effectively, and enhance empathy, leading to a more fulfilled and connected life.
