I used to run from the feeling anxiety like I was running a marathon
And the further I tried to run the more I felt it
I was on meds that were supposed to numb it but it just kept reaching a new level as I kept having to up things
Or I’d try to drink or eat it away
But it stayed stuck in my body
That’s the thing about emotions
The more we try to avoid them and escape them the deeper they go into our cells (with no where to escape to)
It wasn’t until I started to learn safe to feel all my emotions, anxiety included, that they had a chance to leave my body
The only way to make them “go away” is actually by feeling them
But anxiety used to feel so crippling to feel, the more my body experienced the sensations, the more I tried to run and hide
But it left me never feeling safe in my body and caused a great deal of internal stress and chaos
When I started Breathwork I began to heal the chronic anxiety I felt on the daily
I began to understand on a visceral level what it actually meant to feel safe in my body
To have emotions and sensations and trust that my body and nervous system could handle them
I began to allow myself to feel the anxious sensations (and a lot of emotions I used to suppress as well)
And through feeling them, I transcended them
And was left with safety, peace, contentment and freedom within my body
Does that mean I don’t still experience anxious sensations sometimes!?
No I still experience all emotions because I’m human
But the difference now, because of my Breathwork practice, is that when the sensations arise I feel safe to allow them in, hold them, feel them and thus they release from my body much more effectively
If you’re struggling with anxiety (or any emotion that feels heavy and/or scary to face) know that I get it and freedom is available to you.
I hope you’ll join us for a Breathwork session soon to experience the freedom you can experience when you feel safe in your body. 🌬️🪷
