98. Free from Harmful Habits: Science-Backed Tools for Managing Anxiety with Dr. Nancy Logue, PhD
Why do anxiety and unhelpful behaviors often go hand in hand? In this episode, we sit down with Nancy Logue, PhD, a therapist with more than 40 years of experience treating eating disorders, anxiety, and related mental health conditions. Drawing on the evidence-based work of Dr. Jud Brewer, MD, PhD, Nancy explains the neuroscience of anxiety, why it fuels habits and eating disorder behaviors, and how cultivating curiosity, kindness, and self-compassion can help break the cycle. We discuss practical tools for managing anxious thoughts, simple techniques to calm the nervous system, and a step-by-step approach to changing automatic habits. Whether you're navigating recovery yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply wanting to change a habit, this episode offers actionable insights, hope, and science-backed tools for lasting change.
