The Paradox of Acceptance and Anxiety

Sometimes it’s just the lack of fighting anxiety that finally allows us to heal a bit. Acceptance is a tool to help!

So true! It’s when we learn what our body’s sensations are trying to tell us on a subconscious level we can then fully appreciate the subtle and sometimes not so subtle messages from our emotional body.

So I heard this recently and it made such a difference in my thinking, anxiety is extreme worrying and shows a lack of faith.

How do you lean into it? Just say ooookkkk here it comes!!! Like going down a ski slope?

Sugar and coffee..I eliminated…changing my diet..more starchy food…feel so much better..Thank you

What if the sensations don’t settle down and don’t get better? I’ve tried exposure therapy for so long and while there is occasional relief in general it just persists nonetheless. How do I finally end this so I can go back to living as myself?

Thank you for this. I am working on Acceptance. Why is it so hard to do this?

[madwilliamflint]

That's an interesting idea. Seems like it should be obvious. But putting it in to practice intentionally seems worth experimenting with.

Sheer terror is not okay to feel. The urge to jump under the number 6 bus is not safe

What about Constant Headaches and dizziness on Top of Health Anxiety It’s so exhausting feeling sick

[dardar]

Fair to say that this practice works for conditions like GAD, but not so much for someone with clinical depression and anxiety since the anxiety can be overwhelming?
