Anxiety.
|
Anxiety is a complex issue. Anxiety is normal, until it is controlling your life.
The problem is that only we can control it, and control how we respond to it. We can spend a lot of time managing the symptoms, and while medications can be useful in the short term they will never solve your anxiety. Where did this all come from? Often it is associated with an expectancy, or a hyper-vigilance regarding risk and/or harm that has its origins in previous trauma. |
Two key issues influence anxiety deeply, and these relate to personal boundaries and personal belief systems.
When boundaries or belief systems are crushed by events or people, on-going worry grows into anxiety. And this can be followed by a very dark form of depression.
This is a terrible place to end up in, and yet personal experience has shown me that it can be totally overcome …IF you will do the necessary work.
Let’s be clear; if you want to stay there you can, but if you want change then I can help you walk out into the light again. It will take courage (which you already have if you are reading this) and letting go of some stuff.
The practices of forgiveness and gratitude are central to an ongoing freedom and quality-of-life, and I can help you understand what these really are.
