Guest guest Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 SAT NAM, As I have already mentioned in my early posts that I am going through a lot of anxiety phase again since the past 3 weeks. When it arises I know it is momentatory and will ease but it is pretty hard to handle it. It appears to raise my energies, breathe rate and also creates a heaviness in brain reducing clarity of thought. Since the past 2 days I notice it has made my brain extreemely tired and I tend to doze off automatically while working. Mind seems to bring in and coorelate different situations, pictures all at once and sometimes seems to forget the sequence of work that I usually do.This raises a fear as to will this anxiety make me bed ridden some day or will I overcome it without affecting my health? When I do yoga , it feels very soothing and in control but there are many situations in buisness world which tend to trigger that and again the same old story. I thought I got a pretty good control over it since I was handling it very well for the past 1 year but it seems to be affecting me again as I am in a new situation now. I am confident that I will win over this too and I started Healing meditation today also, bought SAT SANGEET suggested book on "SNR" but is there anything that I am missing or is it one phase of yoga where I am clearing some garbage.Its hard to believe its old garbage. Also, Are these negative emotions like a filled pot and will there be a day when the pot goes empty or that never happens..? Anyway, yoga definately has made me stonger and continues to do so. I am still looking for some more supporting advise from you all to pass this phase.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 Sat Nam Akkama, I would start by saying I think alot of people, myself included, have been, increasingly, feeling like they are in a pressure cooker. Anxiety and anger are coming on strong for a lot of people I have spoken to in the last month. When the anxiety gets louder it's because it is feedback that it is time to begin healing it...I would think. It's a good sign to be experiencing it...if it was previously suppressed. Just keep detoxing it and following the process. Just remind yourself in the moments that it arises..."be here now...face this is emotion with the presence of your higher self and your neutral mind in the now"..... Sometimes all I can do to get through the intensity of anxiety or fear that arises is to...put on some beautiful shabd music and to consciously breathe through every moment...being present and willing to recieve understanding regarding what is underneath it...so that I can respond in a way that will promote healing. I use the process of prayer (projecting intentions for understanding and clarity) 24/7......rely on God and Guru...go to them in your time of need and ASK...then LISTEN...then RESPOND. I have gone through the process that I often described, for distilling the emotions and making the leap towards a more expanded consciousness...over and over again in my life. The process works...we just need to apply it and ask questions often about our experience, so we can understand it. I have times when I think...there is no way I will survive this moment...it's too intense..or I just don't feel like I have the courage to continue....and yet I do and I ALWAYS experience a transformation. I understand, that the sun will ALWAYS shine after the darkness, so why worry so much about it when things seem muffled or unclear? Eventually the sun will shine again and clarity will come. This process is true for everyone and happening/working in everyone's life all of the time....whether you can recognize it working is a whole other ball game. But that is the process...to become conscious of it. We may be frustrated in our lack of mastery around clarity and understanding etc....that's understandable, we can channel that emotion into plowing ahead with strength in order to heal. So Akkama...keep up...know that you can just keep applying the teachings you learn and then eventually your confidence in moments of turmoil will increase...and you will grow "more" spiritual muscle when it comes to riding the wave of life and what life brings. I used to want to know if my bath tub of tears would someday drain...if i was ALWAYS going to feel upheavaled....what I realize is that it doesn't matter if I do. Because I have had the good fortune to be taught a practice that teaches me how to ride the weather...no matter what the forecast is...I just have to keep applying the process. Life is a process..not a finish line. I also understand that nothing I am suggesting is easy. It is all an "acquired skill"....it needs to be developed.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 Dear Akkamahdevi, It comes to my mind that maybe you are not grounded enough to face the challenges of the everyday life specially in business like you say. Anxiety, insecurity and fear have to be attacked without mercy when they rise. > It appears to raise my energies, breathe rate > and also creates a heaviness in brain reducing clarity > of thought. I know what it feels like. In my case I decided to spend some time doing nabhy krya everyday using maximum time indicated. After relaxing I used to go to the Maha Shakti Chalnee Indra Mudra. After a week and a half everything that used to provoke this bombshell feelings simply became a sort of ticklish feeling in my belly. To overcome this kind of anxiety demands hard work on oneself everyday. And strengthening navel center/nervous system. I hope this helps. Sotanter K.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Wonderful SAT Sangeet, Thank you very much. Your words were infact very energzing and boosted my confidence especially the advise on, will this pot empty "It doesnt matter when you know how to ride the waves" Thanks very much for that. Infact, I was tolerating/riding this anxiety for the past one month and I feel time has come for it to leave me for good in the present situation and hence it just ramped up for the last 2 days and seems to be dieing after yesterday afternoon. Also, it does match with Sept 27th Mars leaving Pisces.GOD!! Well, what a ride it was, indeed, infact it reminds me everytime it comes that I was getting disconnected from divine and at that moment I would feel how will I coorelate Relaxing, Divinity with this stiuation when they are not needed... as I would be focusing on results. Also, one other thing that I notice is that yesterday while I was in the kitchen suddenly I became aware of my right nostril being active for quite sometime. This was the first time I became aware of an active nostril!!. I hadnt experienced this before also, I am now able to observe at the point of nasal passage division inside and while I do that I can see how breathe balances between 2 nostrils. I am sure this should prevent me from further affects. All in all, I feel everytime anxiety comes it leaves me making me much stronger for it.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Akkama...you just reminded...the other thing I have been doing alot of over the past two weeks to calm down, anxiety and fear and it has been working wonderfully is the left nostril breathing for 10-15 minutes in the morning after I do yoga, but before I begin meditating. Inhale left, exhale right. It gets me very relaxed so that I can petition the universe for healing or clarity or whatever it is I need to be supported in that moment...and have a strong, clear projection...so that my prayer can be heard clearly without all of the static of the mind and emotions mumbling it up.
