They do help. They help me. And because of that, I'm beginning to be able to see the true possibility of my future - to live healthier, wealthier, and happier. When the fear subsides, things just start falling into place. For me, anxiety, symptoms, thoughts, and anything we feel is negative in nature, is fired by our afraid little brain that's perceiving danger. The thing is, I'm convinced it is this because I'm getting better these days. For example, I'm seeing the possibility that my new narrative is beginning to change, you know, the narrative that "my brain is perceiving danger" to "my brain is starting to get my consistent and authentic messages of safety." I always remind myself, feeling anything uncomfortable now in my body are just a part of me recovering from chronic fear that I just discovered I've been in fear state for long time. Take your time. Relax. Have the accurate knowledge, do what makes you feel good, keep watching Dan, and let this comment be a reminder that you're not broken. We're actually okay. Always been. We just forgot.
Truly appreciate this message Dan. Realizing that resisting the fear/anxious feeling & facing it & accepting it was the turning point recently for me. Reacting to the already "reactive" sensations only perpetuated more of the same. The bottom line was an unconscious belief ""I'm not safe"...this created the emotion of fear & this was reflected back as sensations in the body & thoughts of the same type...I identified with the belief. But changing the script to "I am safe" whilst repeatedly living life & showing limby this to be true, facing emotions & learning to love all aspects of self...slowly but steadily system is settling. To anyone reading this keep going. Much love to all who are on this journey. ❤
@@marieleak8731 THIS IS SO COMMON TODAY - THE URGE TO GO FASTER. ARE WE RUNNING TO OR FROM SOMETHING? BE STILL AND KNOW I AM GOD, START WITH 5 MINUTES AND LET IT INCREASE SLOWLY TIL A PATTERN CHANGES
I rush all the time. Like i'm in a state of emergency. My thoughts are going, tendency toward ruminating on things/ people from the past. Even household chores, or driving. There's a sense of urgency. So Dan's words to slow down your thinking, your breathing, your movements, this is a simple change but hard to learn after a lifetime of rushing and being raised by a mother who was driven, perpetually rushing, overworked, angry and resentful. Practice, practice. When i deliberately stop and consciously slow everything down, it is like soothing medicine to my whole being. It is self love, compassion.
I was the same Dee! But with slowing down, I’m astonished to see how much I missed of real life, with all the rushing and to do tasks.. my head was never in the present! In the beginning slowing down made me feel worse because of the stress chemicals.. now I know I never want to go back being miss speedy😄! I love slowing down and taking time to do things or just postpone them to the next day hahaha. Have a wonderful day ❤
I can totally relate. I can rush and do things with speed and just robotically move through tasks. One day I caught myself as I was mixing cake ingredients. I came into the present moment and watched with wonder as the eggs, sugar and butter swirled around. It was a beautiful sight. We miss all these extraordinary moments when our main goal is just to get through the task and on to the next thing on our burdensome To Do list.
I definitely needed to watch this important video , I wake at 4:00 am every morning like clockwork. Heart racing, that revved up feeling inside of me, not able to doze off after. Yes, my nervous system is in overdrive right now and knowing that I can talk to my brain in the same manner as many do for pain gives me HOPE. Thank you Dan, love your videos. My goal is to heal and to become a future success story , Merci beaucoups. 😊
To anybody that needs to hear this: If you find yourself struggling to find a reason to look forward to the future or look forward to the world wondering if there's going to be anything worthwhile at the end just remember that even if there's nobody waiting for you at the end of the finish line and no matter what the future brings *you can always look forward TO YOURSELF* . That's a promise you can always keep. Nobody else has the right to tell you different. Good luck.
Thank you so very much 🙏 I've had a severe anxiety disorder for over a decade and my CFS symptoms have gotten worse and worse over the years. I just barely started applying your approach and while I haven't experienced a ton of progress in the CFS realm my anxiety and mental processing has improved more since I've started than in the decade of non stop research I've done trying to "fix" it!!! Thank you sooo much. Was having a down feeling day and really appreciate your content SO SO SO much. SO much!!!
Yes I feel.like there is no time and I can't get somewhere fast enough or do things fast enough - I am beginning to realize that mindset needs to change.
That’s my main problem. I’m trying to learn how to slow down. I always put undue pressure on myself, just with simple things like house chores and I know I’m doing it then I get made because I know I’m doing it. I needed this! Thx.
I feel like if I could get a handle on anxiety/depression that all the other symptoms are managable with a safe, calm, hopeful attitude. Anymore my only focus is to stay in control of my response when the panic attacks hit because they take over my body and mind and it puts me in pure survival mode and in my animal brain.
100 percent agree that the medical system traumatized me. Not intentionally. But nobody ever suggested mind body to me. It really does teach you to become even more hypervigilant and focus on symptoms and restrict, and feel broken.💔 if someone had told me this years ago it would have saved so much heartache. But Im here now. Soaking up your info and encouragement ❤
thank you so much for your videos! i usually come back to them when i‘m feeling rather down. they always make me feel supported, seen, understood and help to experience my feelings. it’s relieving to cry at times! i know my depressive emotions are tied to my symptoms and as you say that gives me hope!
The last couple days were really difficult. Listening to this brought me back to a comfortable level....just listening to it. So amazing. So hopeful. ❤❤❤
as someone who deals with OCD and erp therapy actually reasurence for anxiety makes it wors in the long run, citting with the disconfrom and be open to whatever happens even if is something bad is they way to let it be
I listen to any of your anxiety videos I can find in order to sleep sometimes ♡ I appreciate all your videos so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Have a blessed day ♡
I definitely must slow more down goes automatically to go go go 🚶♀️ 😮 have to pay more attention to this 😊 it is all the same anxiouty and depression meaning feeling unsafe so same approach as the other sensations teach the brain yoi are safe ty Dan love you ❤❤❤
Psychiatry and psychology didn't work for me because that started with the idea there was something wrong. There wasn't anything wrong. Nobody ever addressed my situation. One doctor saw it, but was overruled. My situation gave me anxiety and the inability to get out of that situation gave me depression. Anxiety was my good friend that was telling me to watch out. Being fearless is not great. Fearless leads to dying.
What to do with anxiety that is inflammatory response? Like You can’t calm it down? Can it make healing impossible? I’m in antidepressant withdrawal and I react to all foods and smells with very intense physical and emotional anxiety and panic and I just can’t talk myself through it, it’s so strong
Suffering from extreme agoraphobia I've assumed YES. The more physical illness and sleep deprivation the worse it has gotten. I'm too weak to get out of bed and look after myself at this point. Never give up ❤
@@sherrilawrence662 I'm getting out but I think I have "safer" boundaries that I do not drive beyond. Am trying. Please try tiny steps, even sitting on side of bed. Hang into hope. Sending you calm and good energy. This site can help 🙏
In order not to believe the thoughts, does that mean we need to figure out what our thoughts are first? That we need to tune into them to know what they are?
Not really - it's often not getting your needs met - lack of support, rejection, isolation, abuse, trauma, lack, lack of love, empathy - people know how to love their pets but not each other.

For me chronic pain, chronic symptoms, depression and anxiety has the same cause: unsafe feelings in mind , body and soul❤
Yes I agree 💯
Same. I can relate.
@@jamesroof6150happy healing to you🌺
...and for me, unsafe feeling in the world.
@@kleeblatt9257 I get that but I think once you feel safer within yourself, you can deal better with world- stuff..
Anxiety is what initially brought me to your channel. I felt that your practices for TMS could help with anxiety and they have. Thank you!
Same here 🙏🏼
Same here…struggling with it.

I read a great comment from spiritual teacher James Finley who said too many of us find ourselves “hydroplaning” at the surface of our lives.
Neat quote. Thank you.
This is a very profound message '' Slow Down '' , We tend to do everything in a rush, from one thing to the other, there is no stopping. 👍
I’m in a hurry to get things done, I rush and rush till life’s no fun. That’s what I sing when I feel that way. Works for me. BOOM ❤
Boom Shakala 💥 Boom!
Love your little song 🎵 Tina❤
That is a great song tho ❤

I don't expect to eleviate 60 yrs of anxiety overnight. 1 day at a time. Doing the hax. Ty Dan🎉

I Appreciate you and all you do for so many! It’s been life changing for me ❤
This was so needed. Thank you❤ i amearning to accept and know the root cause is brain and not to start to focus on sensations and over analyze.
Same. Here. Anxiety and. Stress increases the pain.
Love what you’re saying. Just wish the sensations didn’t still scare me.
Lots of “ bad neighborhoods “ including the swirl around foods
Thank you Dan. I love to be on your calls ❤
