People all over the world suffer from anxiety but it is especially predominant in western culture. Anxiety often comes in the form fear, feeling insecure or uncertain about the future.
These insecurity issues often originate at work because you are in a job you dislike. The negative feelings from work tend to carry over into home life and can negatively impact a spouse and children. If you suffer from anxiety it is most likely caused by misdirected energy!
Every single thought we think, feeling we have and action we take needs energy.
In order to maintain anxiety, the mind must focus on the specific thoughts required to create feelings of despair, fear and nausea. This requires an abundant amount of energy! When you consistently focus on negative thoughts, there is little energy left to power feelings of joy, love and pleasure.
You cannot enjoy life when you spend all of your energy worrying about it!Energy is not inherently good or bad, it is neutral. It is the conscious use of energy that determines is constructive or destructive purpose. Take electricity for example; you can use it cook a man’s dinner or to shock him.
Anxiety is energy which can’t be destroyed, but it can be rechanneled into feelings that are positive and uplifting.The 4 steps to redirecting energy are Pause, Ask Questions, Listen and Tap.
PAUSE
When you begin to feel fear, nervous or anxious stop and figure out why. This step is imperative to understanding the problem. We will often turn from our fears by consciously not thinking about it.
ASK QUESTIONS
Literally ask yourself, speaking the words out loud, why am I feeling anxious? What is creating this feeling of restlessness? Why am I afraid? What do I believe (either correctly or incorrectly) that is fueling this fear? You may be surprised at what your mind tells you.
LISTEN
Listen to what your mind tells you. Do not argue. Do not justify. Do not excuse. Your mind may give you illogical, juvenile or even silly reasons. You must be aware of what the issues are that are troubling it so you can re-channel anxious energy into positive outlets.
TAPPING
The final step is to apply the tapping technique to each reason your mind gave you for having anxiety. Apply the EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping techniques and change your meridian points for each point of anxiety.
Traditional EFT has you tapping with the fingertips of your index finger and middle finger on certain acupressure spots, like your cheekbone, chin or collarbone, changing the tapping point for each new statement. Be sure to state the reasons out loud while engaging in the exercise.
Taking the time to apply these techniques when you feel anxiety will have a dramatic and positive impact on how you feel about yourself. There are thousands of inspiring testimonials on the power of EFT and the direct impact it has had to bringing joy, wealth and happiness into people’s lives.
