-- How To Relieve Stress And Anxiety Fast (Somatic Practice) --

When it comes to stress and anxiety relief, here’s what you should know:

Your brain is not separate from your body.

That seems mind-numbingly simple, doesn’t it? Of course they aren’t separate.

But unfortunately we live within a culture that divides mind from body. The separation is so pervasive that it permeates every aspect of our lives without us even being aware of it.

Take language for example. We talk about our bodies like they’re not part of “us,” -- i.e. the you that you identify with as your personality.

But actually your body is integral to who you are. Not in a judgy sort of way, like you’re a bad person if you don’t fit an unrealistic physical ideal.

But in a neurological sort of way -- your thoughts and movement develop simultaneously.

And they function simultaneously, too.

Thoughts, in fact, are the narration or summary of our physical sensations and emotions. Which means that you can change anxious thoughts by shifting your sensory experience…

i.e. by giving your brain some new information.

And that’s exactly what I show you how to do in this week’s video. Give it a watch and let me know how it goes for you in the comments.

You have literally changed my life overnight ! I have tried EVERYTHING under the sun - acupuncture, dry needling, all the types of massage, pills, meditation, journaling, exercise and so on… I was terrified I wouldn’t be able to continue to care for my children (single mum)… highest appreciation beyond words for your work ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

As a person who lives with generalized anxiety, I'm ALWAYS requesting hand massages from my husband. I knew it lowered my anxiety but I never knew why. This video was a light bulb moment for me and sort of validated feelings I already had. Thanks!

I don't have an acupressure ring, so I just gently massaged all my fingers in circular movements, and I immediately started yawning big time :D

[dpaul]

Oh my! I'm recovering from a stroke!! How perfect is this?! Thank you!

[madeleineland]

Thank-you for boldly speaking the truth that existing practices we've been taught/practised don't always work! The assumption is that they do, and there's something wrong with you if it's not working!!! It's quite a big relief to realize that just maybe it was the technique & not oneself!!! Big gratitude!!

[hmahoney]

I’ve been using that ring on my massage clients for over a decade never knowing exactly why people, and myself love it so much. I knew it relieved tension but didn’t know at what level. Wow again!

[larrywuzhere]

Sukie thank you for sharing your work. You are impacting thousands of people whose lives are improved by your videos. I am one of them.

This answered a block I’ve had for years working with SE. understanding that it is a practice involving the input of the nervous system has completely changed what to do!

[chlover]

I have been trapped in fight or flight for days and i did this with my fingers and yawned like 10+ times and i am sooo relaxed! This is truly amazing!

[mmcdonaldish]

I just dug my relax-O-ring out of my drawer and used it for the first time in a year. Very relaxing, especially on the toes. Thanks for the reminder of using this tool and I think I'll bring it with me back to work after the holidays.

[irxirvx]

I am literally in tears because this honestly worked. You are a gift. Thank you thank you thank you. I cannot express my gratitude for you for sharing this video/experience. I deal with really bad anxiety and panic and this worked in about a minute. Thank you so much for sharing this blessing.

Im 44, never experienced any real anxiety but have a high stress job and 17 years of this has taken its toll and for the 1st time in my life, experiencing spikes of high blood pressure was not good. My stress limits have reduced about 25% making my normal high stress limits overflow and my body crashes. I tried addressing my blood pressure by diet but didnt actually address the cause! Found this YouTube channel and looking forward to seeing the results. My physical health is very good but need to address the stress issues. Excellent content so far and will watch all of the videos. Thank you 😊

[ericaacosta]

Thank you so much for this video. I have suffered from anxiety since 2014 and am currently feeling debilitated by it while I'm going through a stressful situation. I can't run away from what I'm going through, so using this method will help me function.

[sourcehealing]

I just started massaging my fingers and hands and now I’m crying! It feels like a big release. Thank you so much!

[katief]

Discovered Sukie and her channel today and already a big fan. Experienced physical results from the ear massage exercises. What a wonderful gift, thank you.

[candihaas]

Dang Sukie! So glad you looked into your own Healing further so we can now all benefit from your passion and knowledge on this subject! Right on😎 I see you! Thank you 🙏

[brentbaity]

I love everything about this video. For years now I've been in/out of treatment for alcohol/substance abuse disorder. I've attended Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Anger Management and recently Mindfulness, all of which have been helpful. The 12 step approach even more so because it over action and service as a means to help however there's so many rules. Church has even more requirements for a person to follow. All of these are good with me but I'm looking for mental, emotional and spiritual wholeness. The information here helps. And it's a pretty cool way to practice Self-Care. Thank you for your passion and your time.

[severinechantalou]

I've bought the rings after watching the video, a few weeks ago. It does have a real effect. I love them. I feel my hands completely rejuvenate and kind, happy.

[sirenagarrido]

Thank you Susie I don't have the ring yet and just massaging the fingers and I can't believe it I started feeling more calming almost immediately and I was really feeling very overwhelmed

Clearest videos on this subject on YouTube. Thank-you.
