Oof. Rounding down made me get choked up with tears almost immediately. When I lengthened my spine, I felt like a sailboat, and my breath felt like the wind in my sails. It felt like, even if things get stormy, I can float.
I have subscribed to you because you are literally saving me and my mind right now! Thank you so much and I will be watching your videos daily until i beat my anxiety
I had found this out by practice, tackling breathing problems when too stressed. I also started exercising with kettle bells to strengthen my weakened back muscles. I also corrected my back posture while driving and unconsciously carried away into unpleasant memories. Thanks for sharing the info.
You truly are a wonderful person. Many invaluable gems of self-help, for free. Super helpful during these difficult times. Thank you from deep in my heart! 💖
OMG maybe this is preliminary but the effect of this feels huge and I actually think it will resolve my anxiety issues. I'll come back and report after my next few "tests".
thank you so much! I can not afford counseling, and this has been exactly what I need to help overcome fight or flight. fight or flight from PTSD triggered lyme and viruses I already had in my body, and has made me extremely ill, intern causing more anxiety and making it very hard to stay out of fight or flight. I would love in the future to join your paid courses. thank you!
Again just to say both your presentation and content are just wonderful supports and learning....Keep doing what your doing, its only getting better and better...thank you... Keith in Ireland
Your voice is so soft ans relaxing to me i remind me of my old therapist megan wilkins she was so sweet and talk so softly and was really gentle to me GAD ...n situation
1. To increase your internal locus of control and be more confident, straighten your spine. 2. To be sad and feel bad about yourself, slouch and curve your spine :(
When my spine is tall and erect, it feels like lying to say I am sad, absolutely not matching! But hunching over like a lump instantly made me feel like drowning, becoming depressed, depleted. Amazing! Thank you!
thank you.. I've suddenly developed erythrophobia and social anxiety in my late 30s.. your videos are super helpful and give me hope that i can overcome this..
I have been experiencing chronic pain in my neck & shoulder for over a year. Did they steroid injections, no relief. Physical therapy helps, but after 4 wks I quit going and do it at home {I have 6 bulged cervical disk..inward} When in flared up really bad my anxiety and stress get the best of me! I panic on the inside which tightens muscles making it worse.} I have been trying relax and get my muscles to loosen. It's horrible, but I intend on correcting my posture. I have lost so much weight because I am not comfortable sitting or laying in one position for very long...so I try to stay busy. I am just recovering from Rona too! This year is kicking my butt. My youngest son graduates HS this year.....I have physically felt bad the entire school year. Thankful for your videos🙏 You are appreciated ❣️
Good. When you start exercising specifically do ab work outs AND back workouts. I use to be overweight and I noticed it was hard to stay upright and proud not do to attitude anymore but do to a weak back and core. Once you get them tuned up it will be easier to maintain. You got this man!
I laughed out loud trying to say "I'm sad" while upright. 😂 I've been applying your techniques to my daily life for about a week and am noticing a shift in my level of baseline groundedness and calmness. I'm also "catching" the moments where anxiety sneak in and handling them more skillfully. Life was chaotic before then. Thank you so much for making this information so accessible. Looking into your Udemy course now!
Hi there, thease videos are also assisting me, I am hoping it will assist in my carpal tunnel the carpal tunnel is also from an impinged nerve in the neck from bad posture, anxiety and tension in the neck and shoulders. So far so good, but it lifechanging habits. thanks for putting me in the right direction and for your videos to try and get my health back. Regards Laurie.
While hunching over, I felt like I was almost done with my life and only a few breaths away from death. After straightening my posture, I felt a little distance from dying helplessly.
That’s really interesting. Thank you for all your thoughtful videos. I’m learning a lot. Best wishes for the new year 2025 from little ole me in Nashville, TN
The issue is that you need to constantly remind yourself to do that otherwise your body goes back to the tension patterns that have evolved from your history.
I was laughing when she said to say "I'm sad" while sitting in an upright position. I was so happy that I laughed when asked to say I'm sad lol wonderful exercise
Hi, I have been trying to find your course in udemy but it's not pulling up in the search results. I don't see the link in the description either. Could you please provide me the link?
You are beautiful. People who are depressed often have the most brilliant light on the inside. And they tend to feel depressed because they struggle to let it shine. But rest assured one day the world will see it.
Hi. I would like to try your course please. I am going through a rough time of exhaustion and anxiety. Probably due to burn out at work. The executive functions you describe in another clip are definitely switched off. And have been for few weeks now. A very scary, depressing and frustrating feeling. Was on anti depressants a few years ago, and just restarted few days ago, in hope will boost serotonin again. Really need some regular guidance to get back to my former self. Am a charity worker dealing with cancer patients. Currently feeling so depleted, i can't help much. Work badly affected. Feeling very useless. Fear won't get back to normal. Just get worse. Thank you.

While it of course feels physically pressured on the spine and more constricted for breathing while hunched over, I tried but couldn't detect even the slightest emotional/mood difference between when I was hunched over or when I was straightened up or anything unusual when saying the mismatching emotional phrases in the two positions. I'm constantly trying to straighten my back naturally, because I work at the computer and have a tendency toward bad posture. I've never noticed it affect my mood, including when I'm in a less than positive mood. Is it unusual to not feel any emotional difference with this? P.S. Thanks for your videos, a lot of good information and reminders.
I suffering from anxiety from last 40 years, and not able to work and live life ,pls teach me techniques for free ,even at 50 years I don't have money to pay

Thank you so much for your videos and channel, truly such great help
The hunching over and looking down reminds me of body behavior when feeling discouraged, weighted down.
exactly
Great video thank you!
Super helpful! Great tool before I see certain people or go into work.
Great channel, thank you.
Thanks :)
I'm overweight and a "breath holder" due to sucking in my stomach etc. I'm starting to look after myself with diet exercise and stretching
Good. When you start exercising specifically do ab work outs AND back workouts. I use to be overweight and I noticed it was hard to stay upright and proud not do to attitude anymore but do to a weak back and core. Once you get them tuned up it will be easier to maintain. You got this man!
I like the way you used music in this video. It matches up just right.

Fantastic 💖 thanks👍 Is the Alexander technique something like this? I remember my doctor mentioned it to me.
Stand up straight with your shoulders back. Peterson
this is likely why people target me because of the way I carry myself because I feel like crap a lot of the time; it ends up in a never ending cycle
You are beautiful. People who are depressed often have the most brilliant light on the inside. And they tend to feel depressed because they struggle to let it shine. But rest assured one day the world will see it.
Super helpful video series - thank you! (Also, please will you dust that lampshade behind you, it's making me anxious! LOL)
