I just listened to the episode on anxiety being rooted in childhood with the acronym for ALARMS. This resonated with me 100% & I deeply appreciate the move away from more superficial techniques like CBT into more embodiment & somatic awareness to integrate the mind & body.

I just listened to your MDMA episode. Good work! I am a retired physician with a lifelong history of OCD/OCPD, GAD, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia and Major Depressive Disorder. Psycho-education is a big part of my treatment. I enjoy your Podcast. But I was particularly excited about your most...Read full review »

EPIC CONTENT but so much background noise!
Rosie179 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/13/24
Grateful to have encountered Dr Kennedy’s approach to anxiety being a feeling problem, but a talking problem. However, some recent episodes have had some incredibly distracting background noises (heavy breathing, footstep, grunting(?), and doors closing)

I bought the book and think it’s fantastic. Purchased the MBRX program and not too far into it but seems good. The podcast content is great. But the audio quality is annoying. At times it sounds like heavy breathing/sniffling/ loudly directly into the mic or something while someone is talking....Read full review »

Great information but please fix the background noises, sighing, paper shuffling, drinking, sniffling and heavy exhaling is distracting for the terrific content being discussed.

Thank you so much for your podcast. I have found your explanations and approach to anxiety have been the most helpful and insightful than any other theory I have read. I am a doctor with anxiety and you have really helped me to make sense of this. I have also used your approach to help patients...Read full review »

Thank you so much Dr. Kennedy. Reading your book, listening to this podcast and doing all the MBRX meditations have completely changed my life for the better. I feel significantly less alarm and able to process tough situations more easily.

This podcast has helped me though really tough times. Thank you.

As a mental health professional who has struggled with his own anxiety for decades, Dr. Russ came into my awareness at the perfect time. I’d been struggling for months, missing work, and barely functioning. Then I found his book and podcast. For the first time in years, I felt hope that things...Read full review »

So I don’t know if people even read reviews, but if you’re reading this I cannot rate this highly enough. This has healed me and allowed me to live my life for the first time in thirty years. I can be a better wife, mother, friend, church leader, member of the community because what Russell...Read full review »

Dr Kennedy brings a lot of help to anxiety sufferers but he repeats his own personal stories as well as much of what he speaks of way too many times. I find his book to be the same. Again he educates us as to how our mind and body reacts to anxious thoughts, but speaking of his childhood over...Read full review »

A lot of what you have mentioned has resonated with me on a deep level. I've been working through all this trauma. Trauma I knew was there but I didn't really know what to do with. Like living in a house with no lights. Finally learning how to turn the lights on and seeing myself in the...Read full review »

Thank you for the episode, on codependency, with your wife! This episode was very relevant, because I grew up with an older brother, who was disabled. I also became his caretaker in the later years of his life, and I am now caretaker for my elderly mother. Understanding who I am and setting...Read full review »

This man will go down in history. Scrap everything you think you know about anxiety, with Dr Russell Kennedy you will feel SO seen and comforted and definitely 100% less alone. A lot of people go on about how he repeats himself but I absolutely love that about him. It drumbs it into you over and...Read full review »

Dr Kennedy was the only person I’ve ever heard who really really gets anxiety, his teaching on ALARM ..was a concept I’ve never heard in countless Counciling sessions. His vulnerability to share his experience has allowed me to be confident to share my own experiences and help with younger...Read full review »

Dr. Russ is a neuroscientist, M.D. and yoga teacher who has a wonderful way of explaining anxiety to those of us with an anxiety! I love how he touches on things that soothe anxiety, the ways we fuel it, and how to function at our best despite anxiety! Much Love - Miss Alissa

The ALPHA child episode hit deep. I have been on this journey for years… trying to understand why I am the way I am. I couldn’t believe my ears when you were describing hugs/affection. You, coupled with Dr. Nicole LePera, are changing the world. THANK YOU!
A.brad13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/23
So happy I found Dr. Kennedy! I heard him in Mel Robbins’ pod and it was like he was speaking directly to me. So spot on. I’ve been seeing a therapist for a couple years who takes the same approach to healing anxiety. We work on integrating parts of Internal Family System (IFS). It’s wonderful to...Read full review »

I love how he doesn’t discount science, but includes it with a more holistic approach. I’m a health anxiety sufferer who has found real tools listening to Dr. Kennedy!
ChloeLantz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/23
Dr. Kennedy’s book is amazing! His weekly podcasts help me stay aware that I have alarm in my body. If I connect to that alarm, aka my younger self, and give her what she needs, love attention, reassurance etc.. I’ll be able to calm myself and stay out of rumination. It’s a practice I need to be...Read full review »

He takes what has been so elusive and mysterious and helps you understand how to support yourself and heal your...Read full review »

Nobody understands and explains what’s happening for an anxious person like Russell. This podcast is the most helpful and soothing podcast on anxiety ever made.
peace apple 76 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/23/23
Doctor Russell Kennedy’s theory on anxiety, or what he calls alarm, is absolutely legitimate!!! He helped me see and understand that the allopathic way of treatment isn’t the only way to work on anxiety. I used to think this was the case. I’ve been following his work for a while now. I’ve read...Read full review »

It is not my habit to write any reviews, but I feel that this is the exception for your informative and down-to-earth approach with sharing your story on this public platform and offering real everyday tools to address the alarm that so many of us with “anxiety” have held in our bodies for...Read full review »

I love this podcast. Like Dr. Kennedy I have suffered from my alarms going off and the dreaded over thinking syndrome for the majority of my adult life. This new revelation that what I used to call my anxiety was really connected to childhood trauma coming back out because of the need to feel...Read full review »
