Latest / Float: The Anxiety Podcast with Dr John Eaton PhD
Why Do We Feel Anxious For No Reason?
Dr. John Eaton explains why you can wake up already anxious even when nothing obvious has gone wrong: your brain’s over-sensitive threat detector, predictive processing, and a habit of alarm-jumping fuel a persistent loop of worry.
He outlines the Float approach - noticing and allowing anxious states without resistance, shifting your relationship to anxiety through observation rather than fighting it - and how second-order change helps the nervous system calm over time.
