Nisha Interviews Dr. Frank Lawlis author of Retraining The Brain A 45 Day Plan to Conquer Stress and Anxiety

It has been found that 70% of adults  experience anxiety on a daily basis, and 30% report their anxiety levels are constant.  Many times we feel like we are a victim of circumstances.  This book walks us through a 45 day plan to Retrain our Brain!  Dr. Lawlis discusses the necessity to "interrupt" the downward spiral that we many times find ourselves in when we are stressed and anxious.  He suggests using aromatherapy such as euculyptus, or cloves breathing in deeply to make our brain stop and relax.  He suggest finding healing music that will wake up the pleasure centers of our brains .  Our pleasure centers help to to find joy.  Dr. Lawlis stated that when we lose joy we also lose competency.  Another important key to our brain health is our diet.

The importance of having a high protein breakfast to start your day.  Dr. Lawlis shared with us that having sugar for breakfast, and not having an intake of protein has been proven to drop our IQ by 20 pts!!  Many foods cause inflammation in our bodies as well as our brains.  

   Research has proven that negative, stress-inducing life events can indeed weaken the immune system, making someone more susceptible to infections and diseases. If not properly taken care of, the interactions between emotional stress and the body can worsen, (and even initiate) serious chronic diseases, such as type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic pain.
