I've had an eventful journey through life. I started in a small middle class community raised in a religious household. Through events for which I can take no credit I've had the opportunity to travel the world and experience a myriad of perspectives. Along the way, I discovered I am prone to bouts of anxiety. I wanted to understand what caused this and my travels lead me to profound realizations which gave me peace, happiness, and purpose without religion. I became a counselor so I could help others do the same. I've helped thousands and my perspective now spans far beyond merely putting anxiety in context. I've developed a unique secular philosophical approach to life which has helped thousands not only overcome anxiety and depression but actually use the underlying causes to their advantage.
I've come to understand that a major contributing factor to the anxiety, depression, confusion, anger, etc., which is rampant in our society, is that we are so entirely disconnected from our natural habitat - the environment of our evolutionary adaptation (EEA). Our present is a product of our evolutionary origins but it is so different than the world in which we evolved. This doesn't mean we can't press forward toward the future. On the contrary, we evolved a high ability to adapt. We do it best when we remember who we are and where we came from. We do it best when we remember how we evolved to this point. If we place our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into evolutionary context they become easy to accept and master. I'll show you how.
