How to End Anxious Thoughts In 4 Easy Steps

Because you have visited this blog we can almost imagine what your repetitive anxious thought might be.

Maybe it’s a fear of:

• -a panic attack
• -never being free of general anxiety
• -a bodily sensation that worries you
• -a fear of losing control to anxiety

My name is Barry Joe McDonagh and I have successfully taught thousands of people in over 30 different countries, how to end general anxiety and panic attacks.

Whatever your particular fear is, I want to share some tips and techniques with you over the coming days that will not only help you end these fears but also reduce your general anxiety level dramatically.

After many years of coaching people to be anxiety free, I have noticed that those who experience panic attacks or general anxiety almost always deal with the frequent occurrence of anxious thoughts.

Anxiety has a sneaky way of seeding doubt regardless of whether the fear is rational or irrational.

So what can be done for people who suffer from repetitive anxious thoughts?

To begin, lets look at how an anxious thought is powered and then I will demonstrate how to quickly eliminate the intensity of the thought.

Say for example you are going about your daily business when an anxious thought enters your mind.

Whatever the nature of the thought, the pattern that follows is usually quite predictable.

The anxious thought flashes briefly in your awareness and as it does so you immediately react with fear as you contemplate the thought. The fearful reaction you have to the thought then sends a shock-wave through your nervous system. You feel the result of that fear most intensely in your stomach (due to the amount of nerve endings located there).

Because of the intense bodily reaction to the thought you then get sucked into examining the anxious thought over and over.

The continuous fearful reaction you have to the thought, increases the intensity of the experience. The more you react, the stronger the thought rebounds again in your awareness creating more anxious shock-waves throughout your body. This is the typical cycle of anxious thoughts.

For some it feels like the anxious thoughts are hijacking their peace of mind.

Because of the reaction you are having, you may continue to spend the rest of your day thinking about the anxious thoughts you experienced.

“Why am I thinking these thoughts?” “Why can’t I shake off this eerie feeling?”

The harder you try not to think about it, the more upset you become. It is like telling someone

‘Whatever happens do not think of a pink elephant’.

Naturally enough it’s all they can think about. That’s the way our brains our wired.

So how can you eliminate these unwanted anxious thoughts?

To begin with:

• -when you start to experience anxious thoughts, it is very important not to force the thoughts away.

Let the thoughts in. The more comfortable you can become with them, the better. These thoughts will never go away fully but what you can learn is to change your reaction to them.

By changing your reaction to the anxious thoughts you become free of them.

Once you establish a new way of reacting to the thoughts it does not matter if you have them or not. Your reaction is what defines the whole experience (and that applies to almost everything).

Everybody experiences fleeting thoughts that many would consider scary or crazy. The difference between most people and somebody who gets caught up in them, is that the average person sees them for exactly what they are, fleeting anxious thoughts, and casually ignores them.

The anxious person is at a disadvantage as they already have a certain level of anxiety in their system. The thoughts easily spark feelings of further anxiety which builds into a cycle of fear. You break the cycle by changing how you react to the fearful thought.

Here is an example of how to approach this:

You are enjoying the way your day is going but then all of sudden a fearful thought comes to mind.

Before you would react with anxiety to the idea and then try to force that thought out of your mind.

This time, however, say:

“That’s a fear of X. I could worry and even obsess over that but this time I’m going to do something different. I’m not going to react to it. I’m also not going to try and stop it either. I’m just going to label the thought and not react.”

Then the thought comes again with more intensity and possibly with new ’scary’ angles you never considered. When this happens you do exactly the same. As if you were observing a cloud passing overhead, you simply

• -Observe it,
• -Label it (fear of whatever), then
• -Watch it as it passes by with no judgment.

then

• -Move your attention on to what you were doing.

Observe, Label, Watch, Move on

See the anxious thought for what it really is: -one of the thousands of fleeting sane and insane thoughts every one of us experiences daily.

If you are a more indoors type of person then instead of thinking of the thoughts like clouds passing in the sky, you might try imagining a large cinema screen and the anxious thoughts are projected out onto the screen in front of you. Play around with this approach. Find what works for you.

The key thing to remember is to:

Observe, Label, Watch, Move on

By practicing this approach you gradually stop reacting with fear to the thought and you learn to treat it as nothing more than an odd peculiarity.

When you are at a stage where you are comfortable doing the above exercise and you feel you are making good progress, then try this additional step:

Actually invite one of your more regular fearful thoughts in.

Call the fear to you, say you just want it to come close so you can observe it.

It may seem like the last thing you would wish to bring upon yourself, as you don’t particularly enjoy these thoughts but this approach can be very empowering. You are now calling the shots. You actually invited the issue in.

By doing this you are discharging the dense vibration of fear surrounding the anxious thought. That fear was sustaining itself on your resistance, -the idea that you could not handle these thoughts.

The fear quickly evaporates when you turn around and say “yes of course I can handle these thoughts.”

Fear intensifies when we pull away from it. Anxious thoughts become a mental tug of war if we struggle with them.

It is the mental struggle of pulling against the anxious thoughts that creates the inner psychological tension.

The inner tension is fueled by thoughts like:

• “I can’t handle to think about this -please go away”
• “I don’t like that thought- I want it to stop!”

Take a different stance. Invite anxious thoughts in. Willingly sit with them, label them and do your very best not to react.

Yes, it does take practice but very soon you find yourself in a unique position of control. You are no longer a victim of fearful thinking but a decision maker in what you will or will not be concerned about.

As with every technique there is always a level of practice involved in the beginning. Initially you start observing but then suddenly get anxious about the fearful thought. That’s very normal in the beginning.

Keep at it. Practice and you will quickly see how less impacting those fearful thoughts become.

Do not let your mind trick you into believing that your anxiety is something you will always have to struggle with. That is simply not true.

Not alone is it possible to control the occurrence of anxious thoughts but I can teach you how to end panic attacks and general anxiety if that is your goal.

You can have the life of your dreams. Anxiety does not have the right to steal that hope from you.

I’m going to e-mail you my mini series. It will help reduce anxiety levels significantly.

…learned more from reading your program than I did from all the psychologists and other practitioners I had seen in the 25 years

I must tell you that out of all the items you can purchase regarding anxiety related products on the internet, I learned more from reading your program than I did from all the psychologists and other practitioners I had seen in the 25 years that I’ve had this condition.

I had been on Xanax and Klonopin for about 10 years, but this December, I decided to withdraw from it thinking I didn’t need the pills anymore according to some of the programs I ordered claiming “miracle cures”. That’s when all my symptoms started again. I felt as if I had wasted the past 20 years trying to get better.That’s when I started searching the web for home based “cures”. I ordered so many programs I started to get confused from too much conflicting advice. Also, I was promised support but I am still waiting replies from some of the more expensive programs!

You are a true gentleman, and I am going to post a very positive feedback on a website you might be familiar about called: Tapir?

Talk to ya, Andy

=================================<

…I DEBATED ORDERING YOUR PROGRAM BECAUSE I HAVE SPENT APPROX. $8,000 IN THE LAST 5 YEARS

I RAN ACROSS YOUR PROGRAM SUNDAY, FEB. 5th. I DEBATED ORDERING YOUR PROGRAM BECAUSE I HAVE SPENT APPROX. $8,000 IN THE LAST 5 YEARS OF MY LIFE TRYING EVERYTHING FROM PANIC SUPPORT CLASSES, MEDICATION, COUNSELING AND THE LIST GOES ON, ALL TO RID MYSELF OF PANIC ATTACKS. SOMETHING INSIDE ME SAID, JUST KEEP TRYING, SO I DID. AFTER 5 YEARS OF OF LIVING MY LIFE WITH THE WORLD ON MY SHOULDERS I AM EXCITED TO SAY THAT I AM NOW PANIC FREE. AFTER ONE TIME OF APPLYING YOUR ONE MOVE TECHNIQUE, I AM A NEW PERSON.

ONE OF MY MANY FEARS THAT I DEVELOPED WAS DRIVING. AFTER READING YOUR PROGRAM AT 12.30 AT NIGHT I WROTE DOWN SOME QUICK NOTES FROM YOUR “ONE MOVE TECH.” I RAN OUT OF MY HOUSE AND DROVE TOWARD THE DARKEST SCARIEST ROAD WHERE NOBODY WAS NEAR BY.

THIS WOULD DEFINITELY BRING ON AN FULL PANIC ATTACK, WHICH IT DID. WHILE LETTING MYSELF FEEL THE EMOTIONS RUN THROUGH ME, I DID EXACTLY WHAT YOU TOLD ME TO DO, I WAS SCARED AS HELL BUT STOOD MY GROUND. I INSTANTLY CALMED AND EVEN TRIED TO BRING THE ATTACK BACK ON, BUT COULD NOT. I LITERALLY LAUGHED OUT LOUD AND SAT IN MY TRUCK AMAZED. AFTER ALL THIS TIME THAT WAS ALL I HAD TO DO. THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF EVERYTHING THAT I WAS TOLD. THIS WHOLE WEEK I HAVE DRIVEN WHERE EVER I WANTED,AT ANY TIME OF THE DAY. I AM SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR PROGRAM.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR RESEARCH, TIME, AND DEDICATION SO THAT PEOPLE LIKE US CAN NOW LIVE A NORMAL AND HAPPY LIFE. JACKSON CA, AARON

…I prayed to God to show me what to do

I experienced my first panic attack in July of this year and ended up going to the hospital by ambulance thinking I was having a stroke or heart attack! I have had a bunch of attacks since then. Monday morning I awoke to an immediate attack and prayed to God to show me what to do. To make a long story short, I was led to your website but was afraid it was like the other ones where they try to sell you their products. However, your introductory information really spoke to me and I decided to take a chance. I read your book and it gave me the tools I was searching for to deal with my attacks.

I could tell immediately that you have suffered from panic attacks yourself because you spoke with authority that can only have come from having dealt with the terrors yourself. I am 42 years of age and have been noticing the psychological effects of perimenopause (one of which is panic attacks in my case). Thanks again!!

Sincerely, Cynthia

It’s a beautiful sunny day and all is right with your world when without warning you’re hit with a panic attack while driving to work. There’s no monster under your seat, no earthquake opening the road to swallow your car and no instant terminal illness. Yet you feel wrapped in total terror and unable to shake it.

You can literally feel your heart crashing against your rib cage. Your hands are sweaty and your grip is weak. Feeling like your head is spinning, you have to pull over to the side of the road because you’re certain that you’re going to pass out.

Chances are you may fear and emergency and dial 911 and the drone you’ll hear will be the ambulance coming to pick you up.  At the emergency room, you’re instantly surrounded by heart monitors and the defibrillator is on stand-by.

Even to medical personnel, you look like a heart attack about to happen or in progress.  Only after all the tests are in do they realize that what’s really happened is a panic attack. The entire incident may have lasted only an hour or two, but to you it feels like an eternity. You leave the hospital exhausted and embarrassed.

Panic disorder usually begins in young adulthood, around ages 18-25.  It may begin after a traumatic event like an auto accident, getting stuck in an elevator or losing a job. Yet for many of the 6 million people who have panic disorder, there’s no clear reason why it started. One thing is common – every one of them feels helpless to stop it.

First you need to know that panic disorder is a real mental health problem, not something that you made up or use when you want attention. Those are things other people say to you, but that’s not medically accurate.

Talk to your doctor about what’s happening to you. You may want to learn how to control situations like this using a form of hypnotherapy, counseling, or psychiatric medications.

Share what’s happening to you with your significant other, a trusted friend and your boss, if you feel the confidence will be respected. Panic attacks are so unpredictable that you need support from family and friends who can help you reinforce what you learn during treatment.

You’ll learn how to use relaxation, visualization, breathing exercises and redirected self-talk to stand your ground against a panic attack. In time, you will find it easy to manage panic and get back to doing things without fear of interruption.

…then you’ve experienced firsthand some of the possible symptoms of a panic or anxiety attack. If you are reading this page because a loved one suffers from these symptoms and you are trying to understand or help, it’s hard to appreciate what they go through.

Just try to imagine what it feels like to experience one, if you can.

Here is a typical example:

Standing in a supermarket queue, it’s been a long wait but only one customer to go before you make it to the cashier. Wait, what was that sensation? An unpleasant feeling forms in your throat, your chest feels tighter, now a sudden shortness of breath, and what do you know—your heart skips a beat. “Please, God, not here.”

A quick scan of the territory—is it threatening? Four unfriendly faces queue behind, one person in front. Pins and needles seem to prick you through your left arm, you feel slightly dizzy, and then the explosion of fear as you dread the worst. You are about to have a panic attack.

There is no doubt in your mind now that this is going to be a big one. Okay, focus: Remember what you have been taught, and it is time now to apply the coping techniques. Begin the deep breathing exercise your doctor recommended. In through the nose, out through the mouth.

Think relaxing thoughts, and again, while breathing in, think “Relax,” and then breathe out. But it doesn’t seem to be having any positive effect; in fact, just concentrating on breathing is making you feel self-conscious and more uptight.

Okay, coping technique 2:

Gradual muscle relaxation. Tense both shoulders, hold for 10 seconds, then release. Try it again. No; still no difference. The anxiety is getting worse and the very fact that you are out of coping techniques worsens your panic. If only you were surrounded by your family, or a close friend were beside you so you could feel more confident in dealing with this situation.

Now, the adrenaline is really pumping through your system, your body is tingling with uncomfortable sensations, and now the dreaded feeling of losing complete control engulfs your emotions. No one around you has any idea of the sheer terror you are experiencing. For them, it’s just a regular day and another frustratingly slow queue in the supermarket.

You are out of options. Time for Plan C.

The most basic coping skill of all is “fleeing.” Excuse yourself from the queue; you are slightly embarrassed as it is now that it is your turn to pay. The cashier is looking bewildered as you leave your shopping behind and stroll towards the door. There is no time for excuses—you need to be alone. You leave the supermarket and get into your car to ride it out alone. Could this be the big one? The one you fear will push you over the edge mentally and physically. Ten minutes later the panic subsides.

It’s 10:30 a.m. How are you going to make it through the rest of the day?

If you suffer from panic or anxiety attacks, the above scenerio probably sounds very familiar. It may have even induced feelings of anxiety and panic just reading it. The particular situations that trigger your panic and anxiety may differ; maybe the bodily sensations are a little different. Or maybe it happened to you for the first time on a plane, in the dentist chair, or even at home, while doing nothing in particular.

If you have ever had what has become known as a “panic attack,” take comfort in the fact that you are by no means alone.

A panic attack always comes with the acute sense of impending doom. You feel you are either about to lose your mind or one of your vital bodily functions is about to cease functioning and you will end your days right there among the canned goods and frozen food.

You are by no means alone; you’re not even one in a million. In America, it is estimated that almost 5% of the population suffer from some form of anxiety disorder. For some, it may be the infrequent panic attacks that only crop up in particular situations-like when having to speak in front of others, while, for other people, it can be so frequent and recurring that it inhibits them from leaving their home. Frequent panic attacks often develop into what medical physicians refer to as an “anxiety disorder.”

One of the first steps to regaining control of your life is getting helpful information. This site will give you that, and more.

The beginning of your recovery starts here. What you will learn is that there is a very good chance you are about to end the cycle of panic attacks in your life. You will learn not only to regain the carefree life you remember once having, but will also gain new confidence in living. Your answer to living free from “panic” or “anxiety attacks” is at hand.

This site demonstrates that the panic and anxiety that you have experienced will be the very key to your courage and success.

Begin the road to recovery by browsing through the site. While many of you may have read almost everything you can possibly read relating to panic and anxiety I assure you this site offers something very effective.

Did you know…?

The key difference between someone who is cured of panic attacks and those who are not is really very simple. The people who are cured no longer fear panic attacks. I’ll try to show you how to be one of these people as well.

What if I told you the trick to ending panic and anxiety attacks is to want to have one. That sounds strange, even contradictory, but let me explain.

The trick to panic attacks is wanting to have one-the wanting pushes it away. Can you have a panic attack in this very second? No!

You know the saying that “what you resist, persists.” Well that saying applies perfectly to fear. If you resist a situation out of fear, the fear around that issue will persist. How do you stop resisting–you move directly into it, into the path of the anxiety, and by doing so it cannot persist.

In essence what this means is that if you daily voluntarily seek to have a panic attack, you cannot have one. Try in this very moment to have a panic attack and I will guarantee you cannot. You may not realize it but you have always decided to panic. You make the choice by saying this is beyond my control.

Another way to appreciate this is to imagine having a panic attack as like standing on a cliff’s edge. The anxiety seemingly pushes you closer to falling over the edge.

To be rid of the fear you must metaphorically jump. You must jump off the cliff edge and into the anxiety and fear and all the things that you fear most.

How do you jump? You jump by wanting to have a panic attack. You go about your day asking for anxiety and panic attacks to appear.

Your real safety is the fact that a panic attack will never harm you. That is medical fact. You are safe, the sensations are wild but no harm will come to you. Your heart is racing but no harm will come to you. The jump becomes nothing more than a two foot drop! Perfectly safe.

Stop Panic Attacks Subliminal

Stress, Anxiety, Fear of Driving, do you need Panic Attack Help?

This article has some tips you may find helpful.

You can Stop Panic Attacks in there Tracks.

Not everyone gets angry and filled with rage when they’re feeling stressed.  Some people wind up feeling an intense amount of worry in the pit of their stomach when they’re driving or stuck in traffic.  They can’t stop fidgeting and feeling nervous about what the outcome will be, some even fear a loss of control and panic.

Do you bite your nails when stress is seeping into your life?  Do you get a bad case of insomnia whenever you’re mired down in stress, unable to sleep because the situation keeps replaying itself in your mind?  Does it manifest into anxiety about driving?

Stress happens for all of us when we can’t control a situation – when something doesn’t go our way.  Unfortunately, when stress causes you this sort of intense anxiety, you’re even less in control than if you were calmly able to analyze your next move.

Worrywarts generally feel stress over even the smallest things in life.  If their loved one snaps at them slightly, they spend all day wondering what they did wrong.  If the boss takes their assignment and doesn’t offer up compliments, they sit there concerned that he didn’t like it.

Do you “what if” every situation that causes you stress?  What if I get lost in the car?  What if I lose control?  What if I embarrass myself?  Stress isn’t always about something being done to you – it can often occur out of pure dread that something might happen.

You may need an anti-stress therapy that helps your body create or absorb melatonin.  Not only does melatonin help stave off stress, but it also helps you sleep, which the usual worrywart needs to be able to manage his or her stress better.

When your body is under stress, it goes into overdrive producing cortisol, the stress hormone.  Melatonin controls this excess production and allows you to remain calmer and feel more in control.

There are supplements on the market that you can take to get more melatonin in your system, but you can also get it from certain foods, like dried cherries or walnuts!  Check with your doctor before taking a supplement, but the dosage will probably be somewhere along the lines of 1-3 mg that you take about half an hour before bedtime.

Melatonin will help you sleep, but it isn’t something that will knock you out or make you groggy in the morning.  It’s something your body naturally produces, but during times of stress, gets overpowered by the cortisol production your body’s delivering.

There are some self treatment options that one may want to consider.

Did you know that PanicAway is one of the best selling Self-help courses on the
Internet? The course is specifically aimed at curing panic attacks for good.  It’s primary goal is to help the anxiety attack sufferer learn to control their thoughts, thus eliminating these attacks.  Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies lie at the heart of this method. How Cognitive Behavioral Therapy works is that it teaches the individual techniques to re-program the reaction in the mind to anxiety attack triggers.

While we highly recommend the Panic Away System there still is a missing ingredient. An area that many Professional’s fail to consider is diet and nutrition. Proper diet and nutrition can help minimize the adverse affects these types of attacks have on the body and nervous system.

That is why we recommend a 2 stage treatment approach. It is a very simple approach.

1. Order Panic Away NOW to Treat the psychological side of the problem.
2. Order  Relora®Max which is the a Nutritional Product to help calm down
   associated stress.

Relora®Max is a natural stress management ingredient that helps control
stress-related eating and has the added value of being non-sedating. In central nervous system receptor binding assays the plant extracts in Relora® binds to several important targets associated with stress. It does not bind to the benzodiazepine receptors that would cause sedation, yet has the relaxing qualities.

I hope your enjoy our posting regarding panic attack treatment. Panicaway and
some review details.

It is only when we struggle with‚ or run away from our anxieties‚ that they gain momentum. We can only be victims of fear if we allow ourselves to be.

“Do the thing you are afraid to do and the death of fear is certain.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

We have spoken on this blog site about panic attacks in detail now we want to tackle the side–effects of panic attacks. Most people who experience frequent panic attacks describe a lingering background generalized anxiety that stays with them long after the panic attack is over. Panic attacks are not spontaneous‚ random experiences. They are rooted in an underlying general anxiety that acts as the feeding ground for them to occur. Some people claim the attacks come totally out of the blue‚ but in fact on closer examination the person is usually already feeling an above average level of generalized anxiety before the panic attack begins. It is this generalized anxiety that we are going to discuss in this article and related treatment options via the Panicaway method .

People describe the generalized anxiety like a knot in the stomach accompanied by recurring fearful thoughts. This condition is referred to as Generalized Anxiety Disorder or GAD. This generalized anxiety disorder is the breeding ground for future panic attacks‚ and it is important that it be addressed and eliminated so the individual can go about daily business unimpeded by the uncomfortable stress sensations.

If we create a scale of anxiety from 1 to 10‚ a full blown panic attack would register at 10 and total‚ blissful relaxation at 0.

In a typical day‚ the average person in a metropolitan area might have a stress/anxiety rating of somewhere between 4 and 5. In comparison‚ people who experience panic attacks would say they reach the top of the scale (9/10) during the panic attack and do not fully return to feeling normal for quite some time. What is of particular concern is the fact that a large percentage of people never fully return to normal levels.

Many individuals who experience frequent panic attacks often report that they feel themselves to be in a constant state of generalized anxiety‚ floating between 6 and 7 almost everyday. They wake in the morning with the anxiety and go to bed with the same feeling of unease. It is almost as if their body is stuck on a permanent setting of high anxiety. This constant generalized anxiety makes them feel jumpy‚ irritable‚ and physically unwell. The body becomes tense and uncomfortable and the mind obsessed with the anxious sensations. This permanent tension in the mind and body leads to troublesome sensations such as:

Nausea

Dizziness

Exhaustion

Vision problems

Cramps

Intrusive thoughts

Feelings of unreality and depression

This condition (Generalized Anxiety Disorder GAD) is frequently connected to the experience of panic attacks.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder

If you have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder‚ do not convince yourself that you have a clinical illness. You do not. This disorder does not mean that you have a physical or mental illness. Your brain is fine; your body is fine. If I had editorial authority over what was printed in text book psychology‚ I would eliminate the use of the term “disorder”. The term is over prescribed and misleading. It conjures up ideas of chaos and a total breakdown of mental function. That is not the case. GAD is a behavioral condition that is habitual‚ and it can be reversed easily by following a series of steps. You can return to a more relaxed level of living if you follow the steps and psychological techniques I am going to outline for you below.

Once people practice the One Move technique for the elimination of the panic attacks as explained in the Panicaway treatment course‚ the intense fear surrounding the anxiety collapses in on itself. As the panic attacks become less frequent‚ the generalized anxiety begins to evaporate as a state of solid calm returns.
The “Panic Away” Program:

Proof At Last that Panic Attacks and Anxiety

Can be Eliminated For Good!

PanicAway does not rely on outdated anxiety techniques such as ‘deep breathing’, positive affirmations, or distraction.

It takes seconds to implement wherever you are, -at home, at work or out socializing with friends.

This technique is not NLP or hypnosis. It is an advanced cognitive technique born from traditional psychology that everyone can apply regardless of how long the anxiety has been present.

You will not be asked to follow a time consuming 30 step program that will bring only minor improvements. After reading this information you will be able to immediately have confidence to tackle any of the big stresses you may have been putting off e.g. driving, air travel, interviews etc.

Panic Away teaches a technique that now allows that person to break the cycle of anxiety and return to normal everyday living.

The really unique element of the technique, is that there is no need for you to regress into your past and find out why you had your initial panic attack in order to get results. All that is needed is your willingness to break out of the anxiety cycle.

“Panic Away” does, and in particular the One Move Technique™, is give people the ability to immediately stop fearing another panic attack. It is very simple yet amazingly effective. Here is how it works:

After a person experiences a panic attack for the first time, the experience can be so impacting that it leaves a strong imprint on the persons psyche. This mental imprint generates a cycle or loop of anxiety (see diagram) whereby the person develops an unhealthy fear of having another panic attack. People can spend anywhere from months to years caught in this repetitive cycle of anxiety.

Sexual Anxiety Causes And Cures
By James O’Neill

Anxiety Provoked by Sexual Worries, Fears or Uncertainty
————————————————————————————-

One of the main causes of anxiety and depression is disturbed and unbalanced sexual energy. By reading this article you will learn to understand and control your sexual energy.

Sexuality is a direct method of practicing Love. Sexuality in its true sense is divine. It’s proof of Love. If you are thinking of a person and getting turned on it means that person is also getting turned on by you. Loving a person means saying yes to that person, bowing to the deepest part of their being. Yes to fulfilling their needs, and yes to their desires and fantasies.

No Love= No erection

If there are any problems getting turned on it most likely means that you are with the totally wrong partner. Both partners need to be open for giving and receiving love. Giving and receiving are two equal skills like ying and yang. If one person is too stingy or if one person can’t absorb the others love then there will be problems. So when it comes to sex, instead of being superficial it’s important to start thinking about Love in life and relationships. Otherwise sex can’t be satisfying.

Sexual root causes of anxiety and depression
——————————————————————-

Sexuality is a big part of a person. Men and woman think about it all the time. It’s a big energy in a person that wants to find satisfaction and an outlet. It’s a good thing, but sometimes if the flow of energy gets disturbed then it can manifest in all kinds of problems such as anxiety and depression.

Any shock experience in your childhood may have caused a disturbance in your sexuality and relationships. This can be anything from sexual abuse, to a strange or unnatural sexual encounter at a young age, or even being made to feel guilty for having natural sexual feelings.

It is also possible to inherit ill attitudes towards sexuality from your parents, culture or religion. Attitudes like this can cause a lot of psychological damage. The most damaging belief is that sex is a sin. This belief is linked with guilt and punishment. Sex and any type of physical love or affection is actually proof of Love on the way home to God. It’s an essential part of learning to Love. Men and woman are made to Love.

Healthy relationships with your parents create the foundation toward having healthy adult relationships. Love from parents and how they interact with you forms a substantial part of your sexual personality. This includes how you relate to yourself and others as a male man or a female woman. Any problems with your parents can effect your relationships.

Love will heal any sexual problems or trauma from your past that you may have. The first thing to do is to accept whatever is running in your life at the moment. Then actively learn to love and dissolve your problems in Love by Loving your problems. Be strong. Let Love take care of your problems.

Sex and spirituality
—————————–

One reason that spiritual people have been running away from sexuality is that you can loose all your energy through ejaculation. With men it can take days to recover physically and mentally. Loosing your energy like this constantly all the time unnecessarily doesn’t help a person suffering from anxiety and depression. That’s why in yoga people are sometimes advised to be moderate and only have sex at night. Ancient Toaists and Tantrics believe that a man ages in proportion to how many times he ejaculates in his lifetime.

Certain techniques make it possible for both men and women to have sex and also have a full orgasm without any ejaculation. Instead of loosing your energy, an internal implosive ejaculation/orgasm occurs, which transmutes the sexual potential, sublimating it throughout your entire body. The energy of this technique makes the body youthful and helps develop the mind, awareness and spirituality.

This technique is performed by mastering the PC (Pubococcygeal) muscles, which are the ones used for stopping the flow of urine. The goal especially for a man is to be able to use these PC muscles effectively at the point of climax for a full body orgasm to occur. To practice you need to be able to stop and start the flow of urine at least 70 times whilst urinating in order to strengthen these muscles.

For someone with anxiety it’s important to build up vitality and energy rather than loose it all. Instead of loosing this powerful energy it can be used for health, love, spirituality and overcoming anxiety. It also helps dissolve any type of sexual disturbance or trauma.

Remember there is help for Panic Attacks.

HOW TO STOP PANIC ATTACKS
One of the unfortunate results from suffering from excessive stress
and anxiety is a physical reaction of your body to the signs and symptoms
of anxiety. Your body is telling you that you need to rest momentarily.
But when you are experiencing a panic attack, it’s anything BUT restful.
Cindy had her first panic attack while George and her were driving home from a
Diamondbacks baseball game.  They were about 25 miles from home when Cindy
began to feel a bit “off”.  She was having trouble breathing, her body felt
disconnected, and her heart was beating at what seemed like 100 miles an hour.
Cindy felt like she was dying.  She kept saying over and
over again, “Please not now.  I’m not ready.”
The good news is that she wasn’t dying – obviously!

So, let’s look at the signs that you might be having a panic attack.
The following list gives tell-tale warning signs of an oncoming panic attack.

·    Palpitations
·    A pounding heart, or an accelerated heart rate
·    Sweating
·    Trembling or shaking
·    Shortness of breath
·    A choking sensation
·    Chest pain or discomfort
·    Nausea or stomach cramps
·    Surreal-ness (a feeling of unreality)
·    Fear of losing control or going crazy
·    Fear of dying
·    Numbness or a tingling sensation in your face and limbs
·    Chills or hot flashes

It is surprising how many people go to the hospital emergency room
thinking that they’re having a heart attack only to find out that it’s
a panic attack.  They’re that overwhelming!

Here are some tips on “How to Stop a Panic Attack”

Start breathing deeply – in through the nose, out through the mouth.
Think relaxing thoughts, and again, while breathing in, think “Relax,” and
then breathe out.

Maybe if you just try to relax your muscles.  Tense both shoulders, hold
for 10 seconds, then release. Try it again.

IF the adrenaline is really pumping through your system, your body is
tingling with uncomfortable sensations, and now the dreaded feeling of losing
complete control engulfs your emotions. No one around you has any idea of the
sheer terror you are experiencing. For them, it’s just a regular day and
another frustratingly slow line at the grocery store.

You realize you are out of options.  It’s time to run.  You excuse yourself
from the line looking embarrassed. There is no time for excuses—you need to be
alone. You leave the supermarket and get into your car to ride it out alone.

It’s important to realize that these anxiety attacks are very real to
the people who are having them and they should never be pushed off to the side.

Please remember there is hope for you and there are many ways to overcome Panic
Attacks and Anxiety.

Another great method you can use to stop these attacks is to learn when
it is happening, and then immediately pick something up and focus all of
your attention on it. Start to describe the object to yourself. Tell yourself
how it looks, feels, what color it is, etc. Alternatively, you can get into
knitting. Knitting requires all of your attention and with all of the soft
yarns available it will feel great in your hands as well.

There are many things you can do to trick your mind out of having a
anxiety attack. There are panic attack and anxiety treatment options online
that are designed to trick your mind out of experiencing a Panic Attack and
they do a really great job.

When you are able to stop panic attacks before they start, you will
never have to worry about being in a social situation where you are
panicking ever again.

“Panic Away” does, and in particular the One Move Technique™, is give people the ability to immediately stop fearing another panic attack. It is very simple yet amazingly effective.
