The Brain as a Prediction Machine: The Anxiety Error :: The Ariza Inspire Podcast 304

Anxiety isn’t just fear—it’s often a prediction problem. In this episode, we explore how the brain constantly predicts the future and how anxiety emerges when those predictions become biased toward threat. Using modern neuroscience and predictive processing models, we explain why anxiety feels physical, persistent, and convincing. You’ll learn how uncertainty, body signals, and anticipation interact—and what helps retrain the brain when anxiety predictions keep misfiring. 0:00 Intro 0:28 Welcome to the Ariza Inspire Podcast 1:42 This Week's Topic: The Brain as a Prediction Machine 3:05 The Predictive Brain 5:11 Where Does Anxiety Fit? 9:18 Interoception and the Anxiety Loop 13:43 Ad: Resilience X Workshop 14:56 A Compassionate Reframe 17:03 Practical Tools 23:49 Challenge 25:01 Thanks for Watching! 26:48 Sneak Peek for Next Week's Episode =============== You can now watch this podcast in video on YouTube!
