peace infinite waters diving deep once
again eight problems only people with
anxiety would understand can I get a
Hello we are here in the art gallery
breathing in that air yes I have had
anxiety you probably have anxiety I
speak to people every day who have
anxiety millions of people around the
world have anxiety why isn’t anybody
talking about anxiety why I’m gonna do
it in becoming your greatest version
what’s helped me along my journey is
realizing a little bit of anxiety is a
good thing because it prepares us for
the big jump however if you have
constant anxiety every single second
anxiety no fun I’m gonna share with you
the big problems and give you the big
solutions that have helped me along my
journey one of the biggest problems
people who have anxiety know so well
about is what I call the hourglass
syndrome visualize an hourglass now
imagine you are the sand trickling down
that is what people who have anxiety
have to deal with on a daily basis time
is running out oh no you’re missing cow
Oh No
other people’s lives are better than
yours
oh no you’re never gonna make it oh no
your favorite two words oh no you don’t
want to say that anymore
what helped me along my journey was
slowing down don’t tell anybody
with anxiety to slow down because they
will only speed up and then slap you you
have to do this in a very practical way
mindfulness meditation is the art of
absorbing yourself into the present
moment a hundred percent it is where you
develop total body awareness where there
is no past sorry by there is no future
sorry by there is only what is happening
right in this very moment and that in
essence is where your power lies that
makes the anxiety subside the second
problem people with anxiety know so well
about is when people tell them to calm
down just calm down that will only make
the anxiety worse I have worked with
people who have autism OCD bipolar and
people who have a lot of anxiety I never
tell them to calm down do you know why
because resistance make stronger
whenever you can be a support network
when you can form that support network
that’s the poor they need if someone is
dealing with anxiety that will help them
far more than just saying calm down
because if it was that easy they would
just tell themselves to calm down just
calm down no we have to realize and get
real only through support can you give
that person enough space
to help their anxiety subside but the
more you say calm down you now actually
increase the pressure around them in
essence making their anxiety far worse
the third problem people with anxiety
know so well about is being highly
critical you judge not only what you’re
wearing but also every single thought
you have oh and guess what all the
thoughts are bad by the way you also
judge other people what helped me along
my journey was seeing the secret once
you stop judging other people you stop
judging yourself it’s not about judging
the thoughts you have it’s about
allowing them it’s not about suppressing
feelings it’s about expressing them
there was a great study by the
psychologists Llewelyn who showed how
just by thinking differently you could
reduce anxiety so imagine the scenario
you’re just about to give a speech in
front of tens of thousands of people you
get on stage and you are sweating you
are shaking you are full of fear I don’t
blame you boom boom yes your heart is
beating but what happens when you have
this amazing thought pop into your mind
you now imagine that these aren’t people
no they’re not
they are holograms new scientists you
are a hologram living in a holographic
universe I am a hologram you are a
hologram this is not real so now who
cares and guess what you go ahead
and give one of the greatest speeches of
your life well done because you are a
hologram Llewelyn found that just by
changing the perspective instead of
suppressing your feelings is one of the
most powerful ways to deal with anxiety
so you don’t have to take an exam you
just are going to art class just writing
drawing around yeah
and now the anxiety disappears so once
you change your perspective once you
change the way you see the world
everything changes around you
yes it’s work for me it does wonders the
fourth problem people with anxiety know
freeze have you ever walked into a room
and just suddenly stop and remain there
for like 30 seconds in total paralysis I
said so many years ago analysis is
paralysis whenever we have that big
freeze moment our physiology is trying
to talk to us saying hey get me out of
here but we don’t listen we are lost in
space somewhere and the only way to get
out of that freeze moment is to become
aware of your breathing and this is
gonna take time practice it every single
day I’ve had to but the moment you start
to breathe deep from the base of your
spine not up here but way down here now
you are not in the freeze moment any
longer or just clap the 5th problem
people with anxiety know so well about
is oh oh silent zip it you stay silent
you stay silent when sometimes you
really want to talk ever been around a
group of friends and you want to say
something but you can’t so it makes you
even more anxious why does this happen
silence is golden it’s wonderful to
experience silence but not if you want
to get something off your chest because
now you create an energetic block in
your throat chakra and your thyroid
gland so
what I realize along my journey is that
expressing yourself a hundred percent is
the gateway to self-love a lack of
self-love is the root of all suffering
and that is what so many of us around
the world are dealing with we’re dealing
with a lack of expression I talk every
single day not only to friends but to
the whole world so I am opening my
throat chakra
therefore I’ve been doing this for years
because of that it’s not scary anymore
but in the beginning oh boy it was
really scary so solution take one step
at a time if you go out go to the
restaurant with some friends and you
want to say something say a sentence and
then two and then three and then give
them a whole essay yeah and they’ll look
at you like who are you and just tell
them that you were diving deep one day
the sixth problem only people with
anxiety would understand is what I call
overthinking driving you nuts
overthinking has now become part of your
daily routine no let me say that again
oh the thinking has now become a part of
you the greatest way to stop
overthinking is to let go of who you
think you are so why does so many of us
overthink many times is because we’ve
got bills to pay
places to go people to see a lot of
expectations to me a lot of expectations
we place on ourselves
so therefore this creates a lot of
anxiety
you’re sweating again we let go and free
ourselves of this constant anxiety once
we begin putting things into perspective
what is the worst that is gonna happen
because the secret of overcoming fear is
doing the thing you are most afraid of
and then realizing there was nothing to
be afraid of in the first place
can you be vulnerable can you own your
weirdness let me say that again can you
own your witness because the moment you
own your weirdness is the moment anxiety
disappears you’re a nerd I’m a nerd deal
with it the seventh problem people with
anxiety know so well about is that
anxiety is not just a mental problem
it’s also an emotional problem a
physical one and yes it can wreak havoc
in the body
many people with anxiety myself included
a long time ago suffered from chest
pains have you ever experienced a tight
chest it feels like you’re just about to
pass out you’re gonna have a heart
attack and what makes it worse usually
no one’s around in New Zealand there was
2007 study carried out which looked at
participants and studied people who had
inflamed digestive tracts and it found a
link between anxiety and irritable bowel
syndrome so there is a link between IBS
and anxiety I’ve experienced this in my
early journey that’s why now I just
chill out
because I don’t want to experience that
so you have to ask yourself what are you
doing
to promote wellness in your life what
are you doing to embrace nature what are
you doing to get to know your body that
little bit more what are you doing to
bring more peace into your life are you
holding on to grudges are you do you
have a lot of grief in your heart right
now because that is one of the biggest
things that can cause anxiety we have to
let go of all of that and then we become
freed mentally emotionally physically
spiritually yeah and the last problem
people with anxiety know so well about
is you get a panic attack just before
you are ready to go somewhere fantastic
at the most Awkward time you’re just
about to go to a party and it hits you
it always comes at the most
inappropriate time it’s embarrassing now
right you feel embarrassed don’t be what
helped me along my journey is what I
call the anxiety rehearsal just coming
at the right time now if you have a lot
of anxiety before you go out practice
that same scenario that same setting
even invite the people to come along
pretend you are just about to go out and
rehearse him go on get dressed wear your
favorite shoes your dress that tie you
love to wear ok comb your hair like you
love to comb it but you’re not going out
but pretend you are now the more you do
this what is happening you are now
learning how to deal with anxiety you
are now learning how to let go of
anxiety and therefore when the big
moment comes around it’s nothing it’s
almost like a walk in the park and
that’s exactly where you’re going you
thought you were going out
no you’re just going to the park okay so
once again realize we don’t have to
become a prisoner to film we should
never let anxiety control our life we
should let anxiety be the fuel to help
us become our greatest versions that is
what’s helped me along my journey have a
wonderful day we are here infinite
waters diving deep once again stay well stay healthy
again eight problems only people with
