Real Help for Anxiety & Panic Attacks
1-Day Program
(Also available entirely on-line)

For a person to experience any of the symptoms of the anxiety disorders, certain events have to happen in the brain.  Without a precise sequence of brain events, the symptom/s could not arise.

Briefly and simply, what occurs is that information from some trigger in the environment, which could be correctly called a "conditioned stimulus", arrives as sensory data in an organ of the brain called the "thalamus".  The thalamus is really the "gatekeeper" of the brain, receiving all the information from your outside (and internal) environment.

From there this information travels to the hippocampus (responsible for learning/memory) and the amygdala (which some people think of as the "emotional seat" of the brain).  Together these two organs construct an automatic and immediate response to that stimulus, firing off messages to the hypothalamus to cause chemicals such as adrenaline to flood your body, and we become aware of that response as a symptom of our anxiety.

We now know that if we systematically and precisely extinguish each of these conditioned responses, we can totally eliminate anxiety and its symptoms, usually within days, and usually permanently.

What this Program Does

This program helps you to identify all the triggers to your anxiety (the conditioned stimuli).  It teaches you simple, proven techniques to extinguish those conditioned responses permanently.

How?  What each of these techniques has in common is that it allows you, at a subconscious level, to "overwrite" the old conditioned response with new information that leads to different, positive responses.

This is Not Hypnosis

Although we say "at a subconscious level" this does not mean that hypnosis or trance is required.  In fact the modern methods which we've derived directly from neurophysiology allow you to be fully conscious and alert through the entire process.  You no longer need to be in trance to have precise and positive impact on your subconscious mind!

The Steps You Need to Take

The first thing you should do is purchase the very inexpensive self-help program "From Panic to Peace" which has been written specifically for people suffering from anxiety disorders.

You can then choose whether to use the on-line program, or to form a group for a private program, depending which is more appropriate for you and your unique circumstances.

Very Important Warning

Because anxiety symptoms may be produced by an underlying physical illness (eg various thyroid disorders) please ensure that your supervising doctor has investigated and ruled out physical causes for your symptoms.

Do not self-diagnose -- first see your qualified medical practitioner to ensure correct diagnosis.

Live Program

The live program runs for a single day, with participants learning how and why feelings or anxiety or panic arise, as well as the healthiest, fastest, and most comfortable ways to overcome them.  The objective is not to learn to "cope" with the anxiety, but to use the most modern neurophysiological techniques to quite literally, switch it off, and switch it off permanently.

Whether you choose to do the live program followed by the on-line forum (or individual therapist), or work through the program entirely on-line, in either case you will be working through a set program which aims to identify and resolve every trigger to your anxiety, so that as quickly and comfortably as possible you may move to a life that is as full and satisfying as you choose, without fear for the future.
