'A must-read for anyone who suffers with chronic worry.' – Dr Nicole LePera'Dr Kennedy's message has the potential to transform the way we think about mental health and the role of the body in calming the mind.' – Dr Rangan ChatterjeeAfter years of trying different therapies for his crippling anxiety without success, Dr Russell Kennedy had an epiphany: anxiety does not start in the brain.
