In this video, I walk you through a simple technique to melt your anxiety in 30 seconds.
First, I share a story about a client who has suffered from anxiety for years.
One anxiety trigger of hers is heavy traffic.
She used this practice in a traffic jam and instantly felt better.
I’d just taught her this technique a few days prior.
She said…
“I have a lot of anxiety about traffic. We went on a trip last weekend and traffic was terrible.
My body responded the way it always does: Inflammation, throbbing pain and numbness from the elbows down, chest tightens and breathing shallows.
I couldn’t run from it or bury it; I had to face it. I [did the practice]. Then I started to cry. I could feel my body ‘processing’.Â
The anxiety faded as the tears fell down my face.
I feel like I can guide myself to recognize my feelings as my choice again and been able to focus more on the good shit.”
Wow, right?!?!
