Description

HURRY, BUY THE BOOK AND TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE.
Marla Friedman, PsyD, PC, board chairman, Badge of Life

What if you could stop panic by tapping into a different part of your brain Through natural stimulation of your vagus nerve, you can end panic and anxiety, and this book can show you how. After years of working to help sufferers of panic and anxiety, licensed therapist (and pilot) Tom Bunn discovered a highly effective solution that utilizes a part of the brain not affected by the stress hormones that bombard a person experiencing panic. This unconscious procedural memory can be programmed to control panic by preventing the release of stress hormones and activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This process, outlined in Panic Free, sounds complicated but is not, requiring just ten days and no drugs or doctors. Bunn includes specific instructions for dealing with common panic triggers, such as airplane travel, bridges, MRIs, and tunnels. Because panic is profoundly life-limiting, the program Bunn offers can be a real life-changer.

I am both a fearful flyer and a practicing psychotherapist, and I have found Panic Free to be extremely helpful in both arenas. As a psychotherapist, I recommend the book for my patients with anxiety of any kind, and we practice the techniques during therapy sessions with highly effective results. I especially appreciate that Panic Free is based on the latest brain research and understanding of how the human mind works. My patients and I both thank you, Tom Bunn!
