Hello Dear Reader,
Like myself, I am sure you are reading this for the same reason I wrote this piece… You have been given fierce grace in this life and have a reality that consists of experiencing Anxiety and Panic Attacks!
I have no doubt over the years you have viewed thousands of resources on how to solve your challenges yet none have prevailed… Until now…
Five years ago my Anxiety and Panic Attacks left me bed bound and unable to function in life, so as you will relate, I sought every solution possible to get me back into something that resembled normality.
After immense investigation, trial and error, I came across a brilliant doctor called Bessel Van Der Kolk. He published his two decade plus research on how the body keeps the score and in essence keeps trauma, anxiety and panic emotions inside the muscles. This is what causes the cyclical experience of anxiety and panic attacks as said emotions are literally trapped inside us and keep coming to the surface over and over trying to escape but they are unable to which sufferers can attest to. This knowledge makes simple sense conceptually and it’s hard to believe the solution is so seemingly straight forward but when you listen to Dr Bessel’s interview you realise the vast value in his research so I have embedded the video below for you watch.
I decided myself to start having massages two times a week and to stretch or do yoga everyday to really find out first hand if this will be able to alleviate my symptoms. Four years later I have significantly improved and I am arguably now a fully functional adult which seemed almost impossible to me at the beginning of this journey.
So in essence, the key ways to make a big impact on your Anxiety and Panic Attacks are to release the stress and trauma from the body. Sports Massage/ Deep Tissue Massages and Yoga are two of the most potent solutions to do this and it truly gives me great pleasure and a sense of well being to be able to help my massage clients purge all the destructive emotions out of themselves so they can begin to enjoy the quality of life all human beings deserve.
