Learn How You Can Overcome Your Anxiety In Four Simple, Effective And Incredibly Easy Steps

By Shane Cuthbert

Chronic anxiety is essentially a build up of emotion that gets ‘stuck’ in our neurology. It might help to think of emotions being like water running through a hose. It just flows through until its gone. But when we get a kink in the hose, the pressure builds up and the flow reduces. Likewise, with anxiety, the flow of our usual emotion is reduced and all we can feel is the tension building up. Even though our conscious mind realises that emotions just flow through us, our unconscious mind does not really understand this. Without conscious reassurance, it essentially views those vulnerable emotions as being a kind of permanent or life threatening force that it needs to protect itself from by blocking them. That very blockage however is the very cause of chronic anxiety. Therefor, anxiety can simply be defined as our unconscious fear of experiencing vulnerable emotions.

Our modern day societal expectations have conditioned us to believe that we have to see ourselves to be a certain way, that certain way probably has little room for the expression of these feelings. Our cave man ancestors would have been too busy trying to survive to worry about striving for the comforts our modern day life has conditioned us to expect. So whilst our world has changed, our physiological functions have not adapted so fast. Anxiety is the evolutionary hangover our species is now waking up with.

What our unconscious defences are therefor trying to protect us from now is not our physical death, but what psychologists refer to as ‘death of the ego’. To put it simply, humiliation, shame, guilt, regret or just plain old loosing control of ourselves or the situation we are in. This is especially acute in front of people who we want to view us in a certain way.

We can say then that anxiety is our fear of not being able to cope. To get rid of the anxiety therefor, we need to let go of certain beliefs to remove the blockage and get the emotions flowing through again.

If you are currently overwhelmed by anxiety, chronic or acute and you would like to learn how to overcome anxiety in four simple steps, this book is for you. You will explore the different types of anxiety and learn more about how these anxieties are formed so that you can become better equipped to overcome the anxiety that you are dealing with.

THE FIRST STEP TO BEATING STRESS

Many people experience ongoing chronic anxiety that can make life very difficult to cope with. As ill explain in more detail below, one of the things that contributes to stress is our inclination to be harsh on ourselves when we are not coping too well with the challenges life throws at us. Unfortunately, many people bottle it up, try to hide it and all too often fear seeking help. For that reason, its incredibly important that you give yourself a pat on the back for taking the time to seek out a solution to help you cope better with your stress.

I remember what it was like for me back when I was in your position. I decided that the damage my stress was causing my life was too much to ignore anymore, and realised that I needed to reach out for help. It can be a bit of a scary process at first, so its incredibly important that you recognise the value in what you are doing here right now and congratulate yourself for having the courage to look for a therapist to help you take control of your life. If the idea of seeking help makes you feel a little vulnerable at first, that’s a good thing, as your ability to give yourself permission to feel that way and push through the initial discomfort will be well worth the time and effort.

I think that one of the biggest contributing factors to chronic stress is not having a good understanding of why we get stressed in the first place. Understanding why our mind ‘does anxiety’ to us is not in itself the solution mind you. But gaining a deeper understanding about how it works and why it makes us so stressed, is going to help make things a lot clearer and send you in a much better direction.

For that reason, I’ve put together the following explanation for you about where anxiety comes from, why we ‘do’ anxiety, and how we can break up the patterns that keep us trapped in the vicious cycle that anxiety often creates. If you find the information in this book useful to shed some light on this hugely important topic, then just remember to share it with others who you think could also benefit from gaining a better understanding about anxiety.
