Description
In this episode, Gina talks about how to deal with an unavoidable part of our existence in the world: change. Many people suffer from increased anxiety relating to the uncertainty they experience when facing major changes in their lives. Listen in for suggestions on how to minimize your fear of change and maximize your ability to cope and thrive when major changes approach you in your life. How to use your mindful awareness during those inevitable moments of change so you can feel less anxious: 1) Ride the waves of change Change arises naturally — but it can generate discomfort and overwhelm in the process. When we acknowledge that strong emotions are present, we have a better chance of navigating what life throws our way. 2) Bring up your resilience When adjusting to new circumstances, it’s easy to become frustrated with ourselves. Let go of feelings of disappointment or anxiety with a gentle shift. Be kind to yourself: Remember, you are not the only person who is adapting to something new. With this resilience, we can learn, grow, and recover a sense of well-being during a time of change. One way to have a reminder of your personal resilience is to star in your journal when you have been through a challenge and found yourself on the other side intact and even better off than before 3) Soothe anxiety around uncertainty Most of us have a list of identities we associate with — be it a job title, a family role, or a citizenship. When these things change, we often feel we are losing the characteristics that define us. Rather than getting caught in a fixed idea of who we ought to be (or used to be) be willing to have room for something new...something more. See the uncertainty as part of life that we all encounter and that it is not personal.
