hey what's going on my friends and welcome to my youtube channel my name is victor and today's
video is going to share with you five things that you can do to help control your anxiety
especially if you're a highly sensitive person an empath or going through the spiritual awakening
journey like most of my audience is and if you stay to the end i'm going to show you an actual
uh hands-on technique exercise that involves one of those big exercise balls that is so helpful
for not only reducing anxiety but also allowing for a deep emotional catharsis where you can
really let go of a lot of energetic and emotional baggage in a very effortless and kind of relaxing
way but again that's at the end of the video so stay tuned one of the biggest things honestly is
allowing yourself to feel the deep emotions that are sort of underneath this generalized surface
level anxiety society is not bad it's like it's information saying there's some kind of distortion
something you're holding on to within yourself there's some kind of resistance taking place
there's a book i read a long time ago by dr david hawking called letting go and this book
in my opinion is one of the best shadow work books i've ever read it's the most practically
of noticeably effective simple anyone can do it type of technique and i'll share with it with
you right now it's real simple you simply allow yourself to feel whatever emotions you're feeling
so for example uh put into practical application maybe you're at work and you're feeling anxious
right you come home and you're feeling anxious still the way to practice the letting go technique
would be to just sit there in a chair and almost invite just open up to that anxiety
and as you do that that energy that those emotions they can sort of pass through you on their own
the processing out the releasing of anxiety there's nothing we have to do the body
knows exactly what to do and when you're feeling anxious it's the body's way of saying
you're ripe you're ready to heal you're ready to let go you don't have to do
anything in fact the only thing we have to do is not do anything is to
open up and allow and i promise you if you do this if you can allow yourself to sit and
be present with those uncomfortable emotions causing the anxiety you will literally feel it
kind of like releasing out of you and that anxiety just gave you an opportunity to heal release
and catapult yourself forward spiritually and emotionally another important key is to self-pace
earlier on in my spiritual awakening journey i was racing for the finish line
i was doing juicing and fasting and sun gazing and meditating and focusing on my chakras and
getting energy clearing sessions from you know people in my local community i was
doing everything i possibly could to live as spiritual of a life as i possibly could
all healthy yoga meditation juice cleansing all of that on paper and for the most part are extremely
beneficial but like anything in life balance is key i was very very unbalanced i was going so fast
that i became very anxious very irritable very uh unrelatable just very disconnected
from my body just connected from reality and i was just kind of a i was a hot mess
quite frankly and i learned that sometimes when we feel ourselves sort of getting sucked into a pace
of personal transformation that's causing us to be anxious ungrounded ungrounded and just unbalanced
the solution is not more of the same it's not more yoga more meditation it's usually the opposite
this happened to me just last night in fact we just moved to sedona and i've been going
through a lot of fast changes and feeling exactly as i just shared and what i did
is i allowed myself to watch a couple episodes of cobra kai one of my favorite tv shows on netflix
and eat a keto brownie dessert a dessert heavier 3d type of activities were exactly what the doctor
ordered i went from feeling just like i was living in a pressure cooker high strung super anxious
super discontent relapsing into old behaviors for the sake of spiritual growth i went from that to
grounded present balanced happy open at peace so pacing is huge go at your own pace
honor yourself we're covering a lot of ground
already pretty quickly just living on earth at this time of the ascension as it is
there's nothing wrong there's no shame in going at a pace that doesn't drive you bonkers
the other day i was sitting there doing a zoom meeting with my my coach his name is doug he's
a trained psychologist and he said victor this is the most agitated i've ever seen you
and i was i felt agitated i felt like uh
it's been going through a lot of changes in my life as i mentioned earlier in the video and he
said what else do you feel what else do you feel and when i tuned into myself and i just focused
inward the first thing i realized is i felt anxious i feel agitated i feel kind of angry kind
of like tempered he said what else do you feel vic that's just a surface and i noticed it was fear
i noticed well actually he helped me notice he said victor i see a lot of sadness this anxiety
is kind of like god or someone saying hey guess what you have some pent up energy some emotions
you're carrying around that are influencing you big time but you're not aware of them so we're
gonna do you a favor and give you this annoying symptom of anxiety so it causes you to ask the
question of why why do i feel anxious where is it really really coming from when we turn inward it's
like you get to see underneath that anxiety so how do you deal with anxiety there's no
hacks techniques way of escaping it controlling it is get to the root cause of it
the beautiful thing is when you get to the root cause of your anxiety you do a lot more than
control your anxiety and minimize the symptom you open up to more of yourself more of your
true self more of your free-flowing dynamic authentic self and then you get to walk through
life as that version of yourself more free more expansive more comfortable more relaxed
your health will improve everything improves and it all started with that pesky anxiety
a lot of empathic people i meet including my former and sometimes current self are extremely
ungrounded for the longest time i thought being an empathic person made me special made me
unique made me psychic and in a sense it does it makes you very very perceptive of other people's
emotions and what's going on with them but why is that why or why do we get so invested
in other people's stuff and i'll tell you what i've realized is because i was escaping
my own stuff my own body a lot of times when we're young or something throughout life happens
to us we experience a trauma as a way of coping we like in a sense escape mentally we become we come
up in these like higher chakras and we sort of disconnect ourselves from the pain the tension the
anxiety of what's going on in the physical body and while that allows us to be very perceptive
and very intuitive it also is a source of a lot of anxiety because there's a disconnection
between consciousness and our physical grounded body and i've learned the more i come into my body
a couple things happen one the more i get to release and confront a lot of the store up trauma
that's been there causing this disassociation in the first place but also i get to maintain
my intuition i don't just abandon it for this monkey you know gorilla 3d
experience it's actually the opposite i get to be very intuitive very uh you know perceptive
but at my own discretion i can become aware if i choose of what's going on with in sally's mind
well is she stressed is she anxious is she a good fit for me vibrationally i can tell
if i want to rather than being sucked into sally's world in john's world and billy's world
ungrounded anxious i come back into victor into this 3d body and it's a game changer so
i'm going to teach you something that i learned that can help you do this really easily we'll
do it together right now in fact if you've been watching this video you might already feel kind of
ungrounded if you don't believe me let me ask you this can you feel your feet how much can you feel
your feet right now bring your awareness into your feet
bring your awareness now into your heart
you might notice it takes a moment to really connect with the heart and the feet
now look around the room find something physical i'll use this and just stare at it is it blurry
is it kind of blurry around it or does it look a little solid if it's kind of blurry around it
means you're still a bit ungrounded so what you do is you just stare at it and remind yourself
i'm in the here and now i'm in this body and allow the physical objects in your room sort of come to
you allow the physical objects in your environment allow them to support you while you feel your feet
your heart you can kind of feel yourself dropping back in
one last big thing before i show you the big ball technique is patience have patience
for yourself i don't know about you but for me especially when i was younger and had a lot more
like social anxiety to be exact the second i would feel myself sweating or my face getting red or my
heart pounding or my mind sort of clouding up or just a generalized feeling of anxiety the moment
those symptoms kicked on i would get pissed off at myself i would be like man victor
good really no i would resist i would contract i would judge myself very very harshly and what do
you think that did of course it made it worse it makes it a lot worse when we contract against our
own natural anxiety anxiety is just one of those it's like it's like a a breeze blowing through
your hair you're going to be kind of an uptight weirdo if you're on guard against the wind blowing
against you and yet we are on guard against the owned our own anxiety a lot of the times
and while a wind might catch off guard knock off your hat you got to chase it down you grab it
ah you could sort of accept that and then it comes and it goes just like augusta when it comes and it
goes it comes and it goes anxiety if you allow it if you don't judge yourself if you have patience
it will come and go this happened to me a few days ago where i had to really have patience for myself
i was with some friends and uh there was one of those like silences where everyone stopped talking
for some reason i have an association with that and people noticing me and that's exactly what
happened it got real quiet and i almost saw it coming maybe i manifested it and everyone
looked at me and were they're like hey vic like what's going on they could see i was feeling
nervous because that old inner child shyness it came a breeze blew through with anxiety
i got a little bit red when people did that but you wanna know what i almost like smiled to my
inner child i almost gave myself love and patience and tolerance and like a breeze it came and went
in the past i would have let it escalate because of my own choice to not have patience for myself
okay my friends here we are so just plop yourself down on a big ball like that you can get them
on amazon for like 10 bucks and as you see i'm just stretching on my arms leaning back
and letting go once you settle in you want to start to breathe really deeply
how to bring the breath deep into your belly and big relaxing exhales feeling the tension release
that's part one part two you're gonna do the exact opposite because that can bring up stuff
what we just did this is where you just remind yourself that you are safe you are in your body
and it's all good go at your own pace with this my friends peace thank you for watching
