Endlessly talking about a problem, analysing it, and revisiting all the reasons you're stuck, usually makes it worse.
The same is true with anxiety.
The more attention we give to the symptoms, the story, and the apparent causes, the more real and solid they can become.
That doesn't mean ignore it or never talk about it. Sometimes getting things out can be helpful.
But I find that for many strong, capable people who are good at holding everything together, talking about their problems, and the way they're feeling, is the last thing they want to do.
So they suffer in silence, but the good thing is, you don't have to...
Real and lasting relief - and solutions, appear rapidly when you stop trying to solve the problem at the level of the problem.
What I've found with most people I've worked with is that anxiety eases surprisingly quickly when people realise they have far more control than they think they do.
Not the usual type of control through force…
like trying to control yourself through sheer willpower, or trying to control everyone and everything around you.
I'm talking about real control that allows you to move forward with ease, and with a sense of being OK no matter what.
And that comes from shifting things at the level of the cause, instead of wrestling with the effects.
When that shift happens, the relief can be enormous and it doesn't need to be complicated, arduous, or take a long time.
It's one of my favourite things to witness in people I work with, as well as in myself whenever I need it.
That's one of the ways I help people inside the Be Your Own Solution Clarity Pack.
It's personalised guidance based on your specific situation, designed to help you gain a whole new level of clarity, and move forward in real control... without having to talk about it.
