Do you find it difficult to manage emotions? Have you ever had the experience of feeling completely out of control, where your heart races, your breath shortens, and you feel absolutely panicked? Or maybe you just have a continuous, irritating, low-level anxiety that seems to be your constant companion.
This is the experience of being anxious. Many things can make us feel anxious, such as our jobs, our relationships, and even just our thoughts about something. Anxiety and other negative emotions impact our work, personal lives, and for athletes, their sports performance. Our friends and family may tell us “it’s not so bad, try to relax”, or “just take a few deep breaths”. Although our loved ones have good intentions, these suggestions rarely help. We must learn to manage our emotions.
How Elizabeth learned to manage her emotions.
Elizabeth is a director in a mid-size healthcare company. A significant part of her job involves giving talks to large groups of people. No matter how many books she reads and podcasts she listens to about how to manage her feelings, she just can’t stop debilitating worry and anxiety before delivering a presentation. One of the worst parts is the physical and mental exhaustion she experiences afterwards.
Once we helped Elizabeth identify the triggering patterns causing her anxiousness, it was easy to assist her to find the resources to get to the core of the problem and identify a solution. After just a few sessions with Mindset Mental Coaching, her colleagues and management noticed how much calmer and effective she was when delivering a talk.
Getting to the root of the problem.
Many people who feel anxious will seek help through various methods that may provide some relief. Unfortunately, often the feelings of anxiousness return, and sometimes with a vengeance. The problem is not that the person doesn’t want to feel better, because usually they want that more than anything else. The problem is that they are missing dealing with the root cause of the problem in an effective way.
All the great advice in the world about how to think positive is useless unless you can get new perspectives integrated into the central nervous system, which controls your bodily responses. This is where we go when we work together.
“You have to be able to center yourself, to let all of your emotions go… Don’t ever forget that you play with your soul as well as your body.” Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
