内容简介
说到焦虑，大多数人都避之唯恐不及。我们认为是焦虑给我们压力，让我们失眠，一步步破坏我们的生活，于是想方设法地去抑制它、摆脱它。而在本书中，世界著名神经科学家铃木温迪博士却试图带给我们看待焦虑的另一种视角——一种能赋予我们更多力量的新视角。
通过从进化的角度对焦虑进行研究，铃木博士发现，焦虑从本质上讲，是人类在遇到负面刺激或压力时，大脑和身体被唤醒和激活的状态。这种状态可以让我们具有爆发力，在面对危险时快速脱身，保护自己和后代。所以，焦虑不是一种诅咒，而是一种对人类生存至关重要的能量。
带我们重新认识焦虑的本质之后，作者更通过自己的亲身经历、来访者的真实案例，以及各种有用练习，教我们如何驾驭焦虑，将焦虑这个让人烦恼的情绪转变成自己的超能力。让我们跟随作者的步伐，放下对焦虑的恐惧，一起来解锁焦虑背后的强大能量吧！

Content introduction
When it comes to anxiety, most people avoid it. We think that anxiety is causing us stress, causing us to lose sleep, and gradually destroying our lives, so we try to suppress it and get rid of it. In this book, Dr. Wendy Suzuki, a world-renowned neuroscientist, tries to give us a different perspective on anxiety - one that gives us more power.
By studying anxiety from an evolutionary perspective, Dr. Suzuki has found that anxiety is essentially a state in which the human brain and body are awakened and activated in response to negative stimuli or stress. This state allows us to be explosive, to escape quickly in the face of danger, to protect ourselves and future generations. So, anxiety is not a curse, but an energy that is essential to human survival.
After taking us to understand the nature of anxiety again, the author also teaches us how to control anxiety through his own personal experience, real cases of visitors, and a variety of useful exercises, to turn anxiety into a disturbing emotion into their own superpower. Let's follow the steps of the author, put down the fear of anxiety, and unlock the powerful energy behind anxiety!
