Anxiety Decoded: Understanding Your Nervous System

di Celeste Rowan (Autore)

epubli, 2026

This book explores anxiety not as an irrational reaction to overcome, but as a sophisticated protective mechanism that deserves understanding. It examines how the nervous system interprets threat, why certain situations trigger disproportionate responses, and what these patterns reveal about past experiences where your system learned that safety couldn't be trusted. Rather than framing anxiety as something to eliminate, this book reframes it as information—a language your body speaks when it detects danger, even when your mind can't identify the source. It investigates the neurobiology of threat responses, the difference between acute anxiety and chronic nervous system dysregulation, and why logic alone cannot convince your body that it's safe. It explores how unprocessed experiences create lasting vigilance, how your system can remain activated even in objectively safe environments, and what it means to work with your nervous system instead of against it. Through compassionate inquiry, the book navigates the frustration of feeling unsafe when you "shouldn't," the shame of being labeled anxious or dramatic, and the exhaustion of constant hypervigilance. It offers insight into recognizing your specific nervous system patterns, understanding what triggers activation, and learning to create conditions where your body can gradually recalibrate its sense of threat. This is an invitation to approach anxiety with curiosity rather than judgment, to recognize that your nervous system isn't broken—it's responding to information you might not consciously remember, and it needs something different than being told to calm down.
