Key Video Notes Below:
*I’ve found that we mustn’t look to heal the brain fog anxiety symptom directly or we will get more frustrated. Rather, listen to your intuition to give your body what it’s calling for.
1. Sleep more, but change your association towards sleep from being lazy and unproductive to self loving and caring.
2. Do not over exert yourself in these areas: mentally (overthinking), emotionally (avoid stimulants like coffee and do not rely on being excitable), physically (stop well before exhaustion whether you are lifting weights, doing cardio, or engaged in sports), and in relationships (be aware of the people and types of conversations that drain you such as talking about politics).
3. Practice mindfully moving towards enjoyment and gratitude in the present moment, rather than thinking yourself out of it due to why you are feeling.
*Remember, we don’t heal 1 anxiety symptom at a time, rather we sense what it is our bodies are calling for and give back compassionately.
Brain fog can be diminished, and as we release the emotional baggage we’ve been carrying around in your bodies and re-prioritize our overall well being we will be met with inner peace.
Comment below on your greatest piece of insight on this video about the anxiety symptom known as brain fog.

I love the video but i wish i can sleep i have brain fog every day . What can i do to sleep more ? Thank you
My son asked me to watch this because he's got it. he wants me to drive over to his house and clean his apartment because because he thinks that's too vigorous of because he thinks that's too vigorous of exercise and I'm 74 and I'm not doing it.I told him he needs to exercise even if it's a half hour throughout the day. Physically you might want to invest in a good liquid vitamin and mineral from the ocean or a deep core drilling to fire that brain and give you some energy. I do not like unflavored minerals so they have labored mineral and vitamins.
I went from being very sharp that other people were envious to now feeling severe brain fog and now it feels like im dizzy 24/7 for the past 13years and cant take it information when i read anything, now you can image what my school life was like
I suffered brain fog for a whole year, not practicing self care can cause many unwanted symptoms, including low physical activity, the less love you give yourself and expect others to give it to you, you"ll be anxious. But its never late, it never was and it never will. There will be tides but eventually with everyday practicing the skills he mentioned you will feel more clarity and feel light. Thanks for the video!
did your brain fog go away permanently?
I get this practically every evening and I mean EVERY. I can feel it so strong in my head and even a bit in my face.
how are you now i also feel brain fog in evening does you get better Please reply me its helps me a lot❤ ?
my brain fog has been so bad lately, and I've been so anxious about it. this vid came at a perfect time, thank you!
It really shouldn’t be anxiety inducing which makes me so mad too
This is exactly what happing with me groggy like I’m drunk my short memory is so disturb it’s like clouds blocking my head
Does anyone else experience brain fog as a feeling of being spaced out?
Frankly, I think everyone has. But anxiety sufferers certainly have. Best thing: slow down. Practice Dennis's slow response. Don't read into that brain fog, but be compassionate towards yourself. Brain fog is only for a moment, and clarity is retrievable if you compassionately and patiently allow it to show up. Don't force it.
@@xxSk8ing4christxx I was honestly terrified when I first experienced the feeling of being spaced out. I was sure something was wrong with me. I cried with relief when I read that it is a common anxiety symptom. I'm working on recovery and have very little feeling of being spaced out these days, so I'm hopefully getting somewhere❤✌
@@kellib9314 That's very relieving to know! good work!
yes i have but it’s nice to know i’m not alone and neither are you
i space out 24/7, feel so disconnected, and this brain fog thing in my head. i dont have a clear mental clarity, feels like my brain is empty. suffering from this for almost e months now. i dont know what to do. feels like im going crazy
Instead of trying to heal problems one by one, I am going to use my intuition to hear myself give my pain compassion.
that water balloon analogy is so true!
I'm proud of myself because I had heart palpitations but I went detective on my symptom instead of ignoring or neglecting my subconscious and I found out exactly what was the situation and now my palpitations had just stopped and I'm very proud of this win and I normally don't celebrate my wins...there's still more to find found and now I'll live more present
I needed this today, thank you Dennis!
I’m really enjoying the insights from your videos! The mind/body connection info is so helpful. My biggest takeaway from this video is about avoiding over exertion. I never put it together, but it makes so much sense. I am mindful of how this feels in certain aspects of my life, but never associated it with being excitable. Revelation.
Your tone and voice itself is as soothing as honey. Helped with my anxiety.
You are the only one whom I can trust in sir, my two years of anxiety to panic attack has been changed due to your guidence and mine is so relatable with all your saying, still its somewhere and distracting my concentration but I am not unhappy its very difficult to share my prespective to look mind ,hopefully I will win this race full on one day soon...thank you very much sir
This is an excellent, excellent, excellent video. I've trained myself over the years to meditate, and then sort of let myself drift off into light sleep to help get rid of my brain fog everyday.
It's a long process, but without it I would be in a constant state of brain fog.
but I've always been held back by the idea that I'm resting too much and wasting my life and life is passing me by.
That in and of itself, even though I can get into a restful state, and completely relax, was still lingering in the background so that I would feel anxiety even coming out of my meditation.
not to mention, my mother who I think is trying to be helpful in her own way but refuses to ever learn anything about my illness, is constantly berating me and telling me that I rest too much already. "You can't lay around all day and expect to feel better. You can't lay around all day and expect to sleep well at night. You need to lose weight! You need to exercise a lot more!"
I'm constantly feeling pressure from her that everything I'm doing to try and cope and heal is wrong.
I just sent her this video, and I'm wondering if she will even watch it. Because if she suspects that anything in this video goes against what she says she'll either ignore it, or try and say that it's wrong, and then probably turn to some religious argument like, "Jesus doesn't believe in what that person said, you got to get into Jesus if you want to heal and stop listening to these people who want you to live inside your illness. If you trusted in Jesus, you would be healed from your illness already. It's time for you to get into God and stop living in sickness."
Translation: you're wrong, you're not good enough, you're not spiritual enough, you need to do more more more more more more more more and you need to stop being lazy and sitting around. Your illness is your fault! You trying to cope in ways that seem helpful, is you choosing to be sick. Not only are you sick, but the sight of you makes me uneasy, because you're physically unattractive, you're fat, I don't accept you for who you are, and that's also why you're sick. It's your own fault because you live an unhealthy lifestyle. Your best is not good enough.
Even when I was 100 lb lighter, my mom would still be telling me that I was overweight and I needed to lose weight even if I didn't even bring it up I could be talking to her about a new movie I just watched, or maybe something that happened good in my life, and she would simply say, "I just watched this doctor on UA-cam say that if you do XYZ you'll lose weight."
And yet 100 lb lighter than I am now, going to the gym, healthy working out, and I still had brain fog everyday.
anyway I guess that turned into a rant, but thank you for this video I might even watch it again because honestly the one thing that I need to feel good about in my life, is that it's okay to rest! It's okay that I need to rest more! it's okay if I can limit my exercise and I don't have to be working out all the time and going for mile walks and things like that which would be nice, but my body is not healthy enough to do at this point.
Thank you.
Awesome video 🤙
I'm recovering from GAD. Brain fog has been one of the more stressful symptoms, making it difficult to hold a good conversation. I think letting go of the fear of symptoms can really make a big difference.. takes time of course
This is very accurate!
Thank you very much, this advise is so very valuable and of great help and support to me 💕
I am committed to not overexert in the gym, in relationship, to know my limits, to take naps regularly, not to overthink,
to take loving good care of me,to be more aware of the precious moments, to be more aware of what I am feeling and to allow it the space it wants when it comes up,
to courageously express myself. I am a work in progress and I am learning so much.
Thank you Dennis, you're awesome!!!
Thank you for this video. I learnt something after watching. All the way from Papua New Guinea in the South Pacific.
Diffently need this thank you Dennis x💗🙏🙏
Thanks so much Dennis ♥️ just in time
Great video. When my brain fog is bad, it’s like a 24/7 out of kilter feeling. It will include dizziness, head pressure, unreality, feeling like my limbs and even moving my mouth feel disconnected from my brain. Sometimes while driving while the brain fog is bad, familiar things appear unfamiliar briefly. Really crazy stuff. Lately due to life stresses, it’s been daily from waking up in the morning to going to bed at night. Thanks for the helpful information.

How you getting on, warrior ??
Mine was causing me to also have mini strokes and crippling anxiety attacks im doing better do to tumeric supplements and eating healthy and getting better sleep and working on my stress levels but still feeling the brain fog an double vision some hope all is well everyone believe in yourselves we got this 💛
The whole thinking about something happy when we wake. WOW! Also, stepping back from people when needed. There's no doubt that certain family members are a hinder in my healing yet they are very important to me. Finding the balance as you stated, stepping away for me temp is a helpful reminder 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for this video. I have been watching your videos for around 5 years now and you always get through to me like no other. I am experiencing brain fog and depersonalization at the moment and this always triggers me and sends me spiralling, so it was great to hear you address these altogether. I will do my best today not to focus on this feeling and be as present as I can possibly be. Thank you so much x
Very welcome Sophie.
Cutting the habit of drinking coffee is very important in dealing with anxiety, but it's only one of many good points you mention. Thank you. Peace and love. ... "Making sure you eat healthier. Eat less sugar, caffeine, and alcohol is a great way to get rid of negative thoughts.
Take care of your mental health by taking a break to feel your feelings and drawing your limits and boundaries. Creating a good healthy routine in your life with rest and recovery is the best way to help relieve the internal negative self-talk."
I have never watched something so true to my experience of anxiety. This is so helpful. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Kind words thank you, enjoy the channel. ❤️
Thanks so much for this one. Came just in time ❤️
Very welcome.
Dennis, thank you so much for your book. You are incredibly wise and you know how to put things into words very well. Thank you for helping me. Thank you for helping me to realize that I need listen to my body for what its telling me I need.
Tobias Duck Much love my friend, enjoy the book.
Love your channel. Could you speak a bit about secrets = anxiety? That's been my experience anyway. Honesty and vulnerability help relieve my own anxiety.
I’m new to Anxiety! Started getting physical and mental anxiety about a month ago. I can really use some tips on how I can change the meaning on chest pains, the horrible knot in my throat. I’m having trouble eating because my tummy feels in a knot and I feel I just can’t stop thinking about anxiety no matter how much I write or do my exercises. Just causes my heart rate to go up and my body starts shaking like crazy. I want to change my life and your videos have helped me so much!
Great to hear, enjoy the channel. ❤️
Getting back on track with healing, the rabbit hole has deepened but I'm grateful to be undoing my former self and seeing problems that I never thought were problems. 🙏💛
Nice seeing you Leah. ❤️
God bless your beautiful soul ! I’ve been dealing with anxiety 3 years already !! This video was so helpful!!!💕
Grateful. 🙏🙏🙏
Blessings n restoration... in Jesus Name we pray.. I ve really benefited.
May GOD Bless you wonderfully and fill wt wisdom frm above.
Amen
Thank you Dennis,I need to distance myself temporary from my parents and mother in law and even my partner.
I truly respect you dennis for what you are doing I can't thank you enough god bless u sir💖
Jaydee Latty Much love. 🙏
Dennis, I’ve been really struggling with brain fog and some neuropathy due to long covid but I tend to obsess about it. I just had a bad episode of brain fog - listened to this video and calmed right down. You are the only person that seems to speak my language. I’m really really considering doing your program and I think the health anxiety one would be best, since I deal with it so much but would love your perspective.
Your videos have helped me manage panic attacks in the car multiple times over the past few weeks. Thank you thank you thank you sir. You are doing the Lords work. I appreciate you.
How are you feeling lately??? I'm just starting to feel better coming out of the virus almost 2 months ago...brain fog finally clearing up and anxiety all but gone I'm even off the sertraline medication that was prescribed for the horrible anxiety and heart palpitations I was going through daily for over 6 or 7 weeks and several doctor and cardiologist visits. Hope your feeling better now too.
I was just telling my husband last night how bad my brain fog has been lately! Thank you for the tips!
Very welcome.
I told my husband about it yesterday because it has been causing problems in my relationship. Sort of like an embarrassment for him I guess. And I saw this video today, helps to know I'm not alone
The excerise point is really hitting home Dennis, I have always loved feeling great after the gym or walking or swimming but I noticed a few years ago (37 years old at the time) that after too much expercise and not enough relaxation I felt anxious and depleted.
Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Check your Vit D level.......can be LIFE Changing
Naps and sleep better 😌
What I'm going through now 🙂
Dear anxiety guy....thank you for the good explaining video of brainfog....Andrea from germany🎁
What a great video 🤩 excellent ideas
Thanks Dennis, God bless
Thanks dennis ❤️❤️❤️
All of this is spot on
Much love.
Legend 🙌👍💪
I gained a lot brotha think you much
Thank you Sir, it really helped..👍🏻
Glad it helped.
Came here after plummeting due to late nights, increased coffee consumption, playing basketball until my hands can no longer shoot, driving out of town every 3-4 days and binging on junk food and sweets. I was doing really well recovering from anxiety and the symptoms were almost 0 so I begun overdoing it. That neutral point is crucial for me at this stage. Back to square one I guess 🙂 Don't overdo it peeps. Keep it neutral however good you feel because this will come back and bite you in the ass! Currently committed to balance in exercising, fixing my diet again and getting back my old sleep routine. Summer holidays got me a bit off balance 🙂 Thanks Dennis.
Is this guy readying my diary or something? He's scary accurate with what he is saying
I literally cant get anything into my noggin, my eyes are blurry but my optician said my eyes are super healthy and my brain aint braining im my own prison and i dont know whats going on, i live day to day and i dont remember what i did yesterday or how something ended up where it is, yes i put it there. Its crazy
omg, it's so true about sleep. I never let myself sleep during day, I go to bed very late too. Sleep overall feels unpleasant and scary.
Excellent video
Grateful Dave.
My brainfog gets so bad. It scares the shit out of me not remembering anything
Some things, not everything :)
Yes something but it feels like everything so scary
After what point did you know you were healed or almost healed from your anxiety ? I believe I am there but I am now feeling uncomfortable with feeling "normal" again, and this worries me that I may go right back.
Being "Normal" is what lead you to anxiety. that shouldn't be the goal
Could this be described also as your head feels fuzzy and heavy?
I get brain fog when physically and emotionally exhausted , not enough sleep , food allergies stuff like that
Key Realisation - I have the choice over what I give energy to. I can step away from what takes too much energy, towards simplicity.
Letting my mind rest
2:23 - 2:40 the things he said in that one sentence described what I am going through right now. I've been feeling this way for months now. The headache and palpitation are only coming now. OMG I really need help :(
More rest I’ll commit, and over giving my energy to relationships
I have that every day
That's exactly what am facing in my life now ,I have a desire to do something but I can't concentrate
I've not long found you Dennis...and the no. 1 thing I've learnt?
I wish I'd found you earlier...you are VERY wise...
God bless you!.
I am Sure i have an illness where i slowly loose my mind! I had brain mri nothing found! It feels like my brain stops all Activity plus anxiety and Depression! I Can't think and talk! Damn
I already sleep a lot so I got that down. All I can do is be alone because I'm like a walking zombie and it's embarrassing. I know exercising will help but I cannot even do small tasks
im same as you..i wanna push forward but it wont let me...i get very dizzy and bad headaches 24.7.aches and pains everywherex
Make sure you guys have your nutrients
Any advice for a busy hairstylist with brain fog and dizziness? I’ll take you’re suggestion for sleep 😄
Big tip on not exercising to fatigue. This is huge for me because I always lift until I nearly pass out (I know, I know)
We have nothing to prove to nobody
@@alexb8926 right
I'm 35 years old I've been dealing with anxiety and depression pretty much my whole life but I barely come into the conclusion that I need help 😢 I'm dying restless nights where I just sleep two to three hours only🤯and constant urination because of this problem irregular heartbeat and more 😢 sick sick
I have brain fog along with dpdr symptom but I’m somehow still able to do my routine everyday
How do you describe your brain fog?
Started a new job and noticed brain fog.
This man is my god
Brain fog makes me feel like im losing my mind. Then I focus on that fact and spiral into a full panic attack.
Hey Dennis, I was wondering if you experienced depersonalization, and if you have any tips on how to overcome it? Do you have any videos on that? I do a lot of overthinking, and its draining the energy out of me.
Hope you are fine now... If not then the remedies suggested in the videos work for depersonalisation also...MAKE RELAXATION YOUR PRIORITY at least till the dissociation goes away...
Does anyone get Brain dog to where ur having a conversation and u say one think but meant to say another . It’s so weird lately. Making my anxiety worst . Feel like I’m
Losing it 😢
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!! This always happens to me. It’s been two years since your comment, did you find anything that works??? I feel like a dumbo, nobody understands me like this comment does
More sleep!!
Hi. I can't understand things when I have anxiety. When I m so stressed I dress more I can't think and I can't sleep at all
I have suffered from what they tell me is PPPD for 4 years now. I feel awful everyday.
Spaced out
Dizzy
Headache
Pressure in my head
Feels like I'm shrugging my shoulders
Feel like my body is twisted
This list goes on and on.
Omg someone who’s got the same as me😭
My sister from uk rings and texts daily for 5 yrs. I’ve tried to tell her but she takes it as a rejection. I can’t win
I cant stand i my head daily. And BPPV And pppd. I can’t do anything
What if you have insomnia?? i.e. unable to sleep
I tried the sleeping and resting thing but straight up feel awful still. Took 4 days off work to recover and sleep. Still feel like I have dementia or something. Been going on for 4 months. I think this is medical and not anxiety.
Check food allergies , what’s your diet like ? Caffeine ? Vitamin deficiencies ?
What are your symptoms?
Needed this video today. This is an area I’ve been stuck on. Thank you 🫶🏼
You are so welcome!
I'm special Ed girl it work
How long did your brain fog last ? It’s been 4 months with mine after experiencing depersonalization my brains been slow
10 months for me..space cadet!!!
@@kdz6858 sorry yours lasted so long glad it’s gone for you . At one point I couldn’t understand sentences said to me or movies. But I can now I just have slow thinking and processing. How did yours feel ?
@@crystallizett5803 still not well, wild berries seem to help a little.
With your brain fog does it feel like a fuzzy feeling and with depersonalisation do you feel half your body is detached from your surroundings?
@@tiary321 I do
Speed it up to 1.5x
The whole point is to slow down, listen, and actually take it in. Anxiety sufferers are constantly “speeding up” and not taking a second to breathe. The advice I’d give is to watch every one of his videos 2 or 3 times to fully comprehend his words. I hope your anxiety journey is going well and you are healing, take a minute and slow down ❤️
Hi, I have really bad brain fog memory ever since I cut out carbs and went keto. This happened gradually, now in trauma mode..memory is garbage.. Any advice? Ativan 1mg was prescribed as I lost alot of weight, became severly depressed, anxiety was non stop and doctors were scared I would die from malnutrition... long road 10 months of hell. Feel like my memories are distant dreams. Increased my carbs a little but haven't gotten better..
Same bro how you feel
@@AlejandroLopez-rs6qt Got covid which made my depression worse, as before it was improving... Anxiety and panic attacks are worse after covid aswell.. Its rough...trying to eat a very high fiber diet with berries and Ancient nutrition powders. Try to limit or completely exclude sugar or any processed foods.... Eggs make mood/depression really bad..figured that out by eliminating.. then reintroducing it back. It's hard but I try everyday to be positive..... I'm in groups on Facebook for anxiety, brainfog etc...it helps...
Same for me! Living hell
How are you now?
@@satansalley6526 Depression is a bit better discovered eggs made me very sick and suicidal. Remember some stuff but some thing got better memory wise and some got worse. I feel ADHD 24/7.. I've been through alot of stress lately aswell..so that doesn't help. It's hard, very hard!!
I wished I never touched damn weed. That's where it all started for me. Only thing that alleviates it is intense workouts or cold showers/baths.

1 st seen, comment
believed i had a brain tumor for a whole year bc of this XD
Its almost my one month anniversary of thinking i have a brain tumor! Already had an mri but still cant shake it
@@noortjekorteweg6903 listen i dont know your situation or age but if the mri is clear dont worry. I worried about hundreds of things over the 3 years of my horrible anxiety. I convinced myself I was gonna die for every symptom and eventually i learned to just not worry and know that it will pass
@@international.pineapple6286 Thank you for answering! Yeah it sucks, just feels like sometimes i can think so rationally and reassure myself but sometimes it just the opposite. And the thing is i feel symptoms that match a tumor and that scares me so much that i asked the radiologist to look at the mri footage again. He will contact me this week and now i am on edge all the time..
@noortjekorteweg6903 I hope everything was right as per mri
Brain fog sucks
Don’t rely on adrenaline and stress to motivate you
I'm proud of myself because I had heart palpitations but I went detective on my symptom instead of ignoring or neglecting my subconscious and I found out exactly what was the situation and now my palpitations had just stopped and I'm very proud of this win and I normally don't celebrate my wins...there's still more to find found and now I'll live more present
What do you do if it’s your job that drains you ? I can’t easily leave
