Hijacked By Your Brain with Co-Authors Dr. Julian Ford and Jon Wortmann

When we experience a stressful event, our minds and bodies can seem to spin out of our control, no matter how many coping skills we've been taught. Why? According to Dr. Julian Ford, a clinical psychologist at the University of Connecticut, it's because we're trying to fight the biology of our brains. Dr. Ford and life coach Jon Wortmann explain what's happening in the brain when it encounters a stressful event, and provide a simple, practical approach to focusing the mind that can stop the body's response before stress takes over.
