  • I believe the author of this podcast had good intentions and it was interesting hearing the descriptive nature of each disorder, but there was not much useful information to implement strategies on overcoming these disorders. he did talk about one breathing technique as well as understanding your level of anxiety, and practicing your understanding each level, but that's about all I got out of it.
