This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD." No matter who you are, we all have a very deep and profound desire to feel safe, peaceful, and secure. In this episode, we'll discuss how to hack your brain into feeling safe. The anxiety and fear mechanism is ancient, and has kept the human race alive so we could be here in this moment.
