Scientists Discover The Real Root-Cause Of Your Anxiety
Are you struggling to overcome your anxiety no matter how hard you try? Turns out, it's not your fault.
A paper published in Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics of 7,854 women and men, the largest of its kind, found one common factor in every man and woman suffering from long-term anxiety. High allostatic load! They also found common in non-anxious people was a low allostatic load.¹
Allostatic load (AL) is a mental and physical 'weight' caused by stressful life events. As this weight increases throughout life, your body increases production of the stress hormone cortisol. High levels of cortisol trigger anxiety.
The mainstream advice is to work on the symptoms of anxiety. But the latest studies show this approach does not lower your AL so any improvements are temporary at best. However, psychologists recently discovered something that does.
They discovered the biggest contributor to AL are negative automatic thoughts. And by using specific positive psychology treatment methods, you can significantly lower these negative automatic thoughts and thus significantly lower your AL.
An analysis of 47 scientific studies using this new approach found that 96% of participants saw a significant increase in their mental wellbeing. Many in week 1!²

I loved this challenge so much I am going through it again. I must admit I was a little skeptical at first and I think this stopped me seeing big results in week 1 because that quickly changed in week 2. By the end of week 3 I was a total convert and telling all my friends about it!
