Guided Meditation For Anxiety

Anxiety happens to the best of us, and it can easily take control of us fast. When we get anxious, we often get faster – whether it is in our breathing, actions or thinking. We tend to get reactive and feel a little tight within – almost like we are suffocating - and if we let anxiety really sink in and take hold that is when we may even have an anxiety-induced panic attack. A great remedy for anxiety is to slow everything down. Slow the breathing, slow the thinking, slow the doing. Slow right down and make space for yourself. That is what today’s meditation is designed to do. Find yourself a comfortable safe space. You may like to sit up, lay down - find a position that feels good for you. Experiment with pillows and yoga bolsters – you may want to put a pillow under your knees or sit a bolster on top of your hips or thighs. Once you have found your comfortable position make sure your spine is straight – with your head over your heart and your heart over your hips. Rest palms facing upward if it is comfortable.   If you enjoyed this episode then please subscribe to my podcast.
