Anxiety affects more than 40 million Americans—a number that continues to climb following the pandemic. In “The Anatomy of Anxiety,” psychiatrist Dr. Ellen Vora offers a shift in our understanding of anxiety: that it’s not a brain disorder but a whole-body condition. And in “Future Tense,” psychologist Tracy Dennis-Tiwary reveals how the anxiety-as-disease story is false—and it's harming us. Moderated by Tara Parker-Pope.
