It’s been 5 years since I started this so I thought I’d add to it with the time since. So much change has taken place. I still deal with anxiety but it’s mostly to assist others rather than my own issues. I do believe time and age are of value with anxiety, depression or any other emotion and what we experience, likely something we have or ARE dealing with in our lives. Listening to related meditations through guided or subliminal methods are of value in my own experience. Taking time to breathe and give time to self is important. Rest, be by yourself and with others for the best of yourself. Not only is being away from stress good but being with other humans that we trust and feel good with definitely helps ourselves.
Now moving on with this, I find doing something really helps the soul grow. Something besides staying home day after day. Reading a book, walking around the block, walking or sitting in a safe woodsy area, sitting in the park, at a monument, on a bench in town watching traffic or sitting at the airport brings you back to peace. For reference the above thoughts are my go to’s Please feel free to carry pepper spray and be safe with that. (It burns) and look up a hand held screeched. Safety first.
This thing will pierce the ear drums so try to think before sounding it off. Mine has a pull pin and I’ve set it off by mistake, something I won’t do again. Here’s something else I found of great interest in my personal peaceful zone. If you remember like I do the past somewhere around the 1970s there was a series of a beautiful and talented singer and her mate. She used to stick her tongue out just a tad throughout the show. I always thought that was pretty cool and used to do it too! ( I don’t name her, her mate or the show here as protection for myself AND her family.)
I decided to rest my teeth on the tip of my tongue similar to this amazing star but adding my own touch. I thoughtlessly found that this slowed my breathing and lowered my blood pressure as well. ( It relaxed me?) Yes it did and still does after those few years. I’m not saying it will help anyone else and not promoting anything here but just making a statement on something I do myself that does what I say it does for ME. It can’t hurt to try it, can it? It’s a non drug, no weight gain, no stress, no cost way to relax, chill, find a little peace…. If you do it, just about 1/ 2″ of your tongue and just slight pressure of the teeth on your tongue and almost instantly it works. ( Don’t make your tongue bleed! ) I’ll try to bring more to table here when I’m able. So upward and onward.
I have new products I design and sell here on my website and Etsy. Take a look at my store and items for sale by going to any page and clicking on the “store” link. You can check the Creations page as well and see some of the things I already made. Please take a moment to view and use the meditations and music which by the way is exceptionally therapeutic. Try to remember to laugh……….. you’ll find you stop thinking about your problems and if you do they seem easier to deal with.
