Distraction - A Cure of Panic Attack and Anxiety

Today's Tip is about the benefits of DISTRACTION

In order to move away from the generalized anxiety, which is the anxiety that seems to hover, both before and after the panic attack, you need to throw yourself 100% into whatever is at hand.

What is needed is to engage regularly in an activity that stimulates you, and holds your complete attention, something in which you can become completely absorbed. The more physical the activity the better.

Something that distracts you is a very valuable tool in taking your attention away from the uncomfortable sensation of anxiety that may be lingering in your body. The more you become involved in one of these activities the more you are engaging with life and the less stagnant and anxious you will feel.




Some of the possible activities that interest you could be:

Gardening, playing a musical instrument, sport, or simply havin g a good conversation with a friend. The idea here is to find something that you can repeat on a regular basis that you are good at or enjoy doing. It is very important that you enjoy the activity or you will not keep it up.

If you are having problems coming up with something you could do, then let me make a suggestion. One of the best distractions I could recommend for anybody who is unsure of an activity that might interest them is to volunteer in a local voluntary scheme. It could be anything from doing soup runs for the homeless, to environmental conservation.

If you can spare even one or two hours a week for such work, not only will you feel your self-esteem improve, but it will fully shake off any lingering feelings of isolation or loneliness which ar e so often feelings accompanied by anxiety and panic attacks. One thing you can be certain of is that there is some organization near you crying out for a volunteer just like you to assist them with their work.

The art of distraction has always been used to help people refocus and avoid concentrating on whatever physical or emotional discomfort the person is going through. It may just be the caring friend who invites their recently heart broken roommate out on the town to have some fun.

Dentists and doctors use distraction techniques frequently to distract the patient from a physical discomfort they may be experiencing, by giving them something else to focus on, (usually the bill). The purpose of using distraction, for people who want to live anxiety free, is to have new experiences that take the p erson's mind off the anxious feelings they have been experiencing.

If you imagine that all the fearful anxious thoughts that go through your mind are like a roll of film being run through a film projector (your mind) and out into your life. Concentrating on some activity immediately cuts the film and brings you directly into the here and now. When you are living in the moment there is no room for any anxiety disorder whatsoever. This buys both your body and mind much needed relaxation time to expel any excess chemicals in your system, which may lead to feelings of anxious discomfort.

By doing something you enjoy and feel you are good at, you are building new competencies. You are saying to yourself that the anxiety path is not one you want to travel down anymore so you focus on building up areas that you are good at. Areas of accomplishment that make you feel good about yourself.

The more time you give to following these rewarding pursuits, the easier it is for your body to relax and return to a normal state of peacefulness and satisfaction. Combine this with my ONE MOVE technique and people often look back weeks later and wonder if it was really them who was so anxious all the time.

Let me remind you that I am here to work with you if you want to learn more about my course and the One Move* technique that has turned so many peoples lives around.

Gratitude Is The Fastest Way To End Anxious Thoughts and Panic Attacks

This is very simple technique but it is really powerful.


Are you ready?


When you practice this technique you will feel a lightness and greater sense of perspective on anything that has been troubling you. This activation of your heart's emotion will lift the heavy fog sensation anxious thought causes within minutes if done correctly.






Begin by closing your eyes and moving your attention to your heart area. Imagine a feeling of warmth emanating from the center of your chest. If appropriate place your right hand there. If you are around
people or driving etc. simply imagine your right hand resting on your heart area. Imagine this area glowing warmly for one to two minutes.



Now, begin to focus on something in your life that you feel a genuine sense of appreciation for. This can be one or more things that you really appreciate having in your life (e.g., family, health, friends,
work, your home, etc.).


It is important to focus on things that spark a real sense of gratitude and appreciation. If you really appreciate the thing you are thinking about you will immediately feel a response from that area by way of a light warm sensation or you might smile involuntary.



You may even be feeling this right now as you think about all the great things you have in your life. It does not really matter what you think about as long as it evokes this feeling of warm appreciation from your heart area. Everyone has something they can greatful for. (Remember, the cemetery is full of people who would love to have your problems!)


More Testimonials available here Here!
Do not worry if you are thinking of your partner/family and you do not feel this. Some days it will be people close to you that will spark the heart feeling other days it may be just gratitude for the cards
you were dealt playing poker the previous night! It depends on the mood you are in, so remember it is the feeling you after.



The feeling is unmistakable, it is a positive change in your emotional state. It is really best to do this alone because you will want to stay with this feeling for as long as you can.




When you feel you have taken it as far as you can open your eyes. There is no time frame on this, it can a minute to half an hour. Again it is about establishing a heart/mind connection. Incorporate this into your daily routine.



Do it in the car.
Do it sitting at your desk.
Do it before you sleep at night.



Practise it again and again. Just like a muscle your heart will get more accustomed to this state and you will be able to switch into it at a moments notice.



I am writing about this here because I want to share a very simple way for you to feel more grounded and to lift the fog of anxious thoughts you may be experiencing right now.



You can also use this in the middle of any stressful situation and you will be surprised at the outcome in terms of your own stress levels and the change in reaction of others around you.



Try it out, be creative with it and make it your
own daily ritual for yourself.



It is my experience that most people do not have the patience or time to make major lifestyle changes. By using this one technique you can make a dramatic improvement to your life easily.



The simplest things in life are free and this is one of those gems.

Attak Panic Treatment

Today I want to introduce you to a very powerful little technique for people who suffer from panic attacks (also known as anxiety attacks). It may not eliminate your panic attacks like the One Move* can but it is very good for getting through a difficult episode of anxiety and learning the key factors that trigger your panic attack.

Let me explain it briefly here:

When you feel the anxiety or panic a ttack building, and your thoughts become more fearful, take a pen and paper and begin to write down each and every feeling and thought you experience.

Write them in detail exactly as you experience them as if you were a newspaper reporter. Go into as much detail as possible. How does it make you feel? What are the symptoms? How strong are the sensations? How scared do you feel on a scale of 1 to 10.etc

Do not worry that you may be writing too much or too little. Try to elicit the first thought that started the worry and continue from there, describing the bodily sensations as they wash over you. See if you can remember any anxious thoughts you had when you first awoke that day and any more that occurred throughout the day. Write it all down.

This is a subtle but powerful technique -not only does it distract you from the anxiety and give you a safe area to release what you are feeling, (onto paper) but it also helps you better understand exactly what triggers your fears. You will feel much less anxious for having done this exercise and you can apply this whenever you feel the fear rising again.

I suggest you buy a small journal just for this exercises and use it anytime you feel the arrival of anxiety. You can then keep track of how you are progressing over time. People I teach often use this method in combination with the PANIC AWAY course and it helps them chart a marked improvement in their progress.

The very act of expressing what we feel helps us reduce the emotional tension we fe el inside. In this case you are expressing yourself through writing. You will be surprised at how powerful it can be. More so you will be creating an account of your progress as you move out of the anxiety and return to a more relaxed mode of living.

Next email Giridhar I will share another interesting tip that I think you will find most useful one that is simple and very effective.

Until then…
Kind Regards
Joe

Do you ever suffer from the symptoms of a panic attack?

Do you ever suffer from the symptoms of a panic attack? -- Joe Berry

-Palpitations,


-A pou nding heart, or an accelerated heart rate


-Trembling or shaking


-Shortness of breath


-A choking sensation


-Nausea or stomach cramps .


-A feeling of being dizzy, -unsteady, Light headed, or faint


-Derealization (a feeling of unreality)


-or Depersonalization (a feeling of being detached from oneself)


-Fear of losing control or going crazy


-Fear of dying


-Numbness or a tingling sensation


-Chills or warm flushes



Do these symptoms sound in any way familiar? Maybe your bodily sensations are a little different. Maybe the first time you experienced them was when you were on a plane, in the dentist chair or even at home, doing nothing in particular. If you have ever had what has become know as a 'panic attack', take comfort in the fact that you are by no means alone.


A pa nic attack always contains the threat of impending doom. You feel you are either about to lose your mind, or one of your vital bodily functions is about to cease functioning, and that you will end your days right there among strangers in the supermarket queue!


I want to share with you firstly the fact that there is great hope. You do not have to spend the rest of your life worrying about when the next one will strike. In fact you do not have to spend another moment worrying about panic attacks. You can be rid of panic attacks and anxiety disorders


-Let me explain how and tell you a little about myself.


My name is Joe Barry and like you I too suffered from Panic Attacks. Mine were on a very regular basis. I was in my firs t year of college studies when I had my first panic attack. I felt my world was coming down around me.


I had no idea what a panic attack was at the time and naturally jumped to conclusions that things were far worse than they really were. I quite literally thought I was dying. For the next year I spent almost all my time and energy worrying when and where the next attack would arrive. I refused to seek help and carried small bottles of alcohol around as a safety measure in case I felt a panic attack coming.


Basically I was terrified. At night I would spend hours researching the causes of panic attacks and trying out all manners of techniques to help eliminate them. I became an expert on anxiety but none of that helped me stop the attacks -nothing was making me better.


My world was becoming smaller and people were beginning to worry about me. Due to the high anxiety I was also suffering from, I experienced a strange sensation of derealization, whereby it seemed nothing felt real; as if I was looking at the world through a pane of glass -not really connecting, just caught up in a cycle of scary thoughts and feelings. Not a very nice place to be.


It was exactly when I was at my most low that I stumbled across a technique by accident that fully turned my life around. This technique helped me stop panic attacks in their tracks. I could not believe it, it was like winning the lottery. I was delighted but skeptical and waited a few more days to see if it would work again. It did. Again and again.


I was suddenly in char ge of the anxiety and my life once more. It was an really wonderful feeling of gaining control of my life again.


Over the course of a week or two my general anxiety levels dropped to zero and my self confidence soared. Like a man released form a prison sentence I wanted to catch up on all the things I had postponed due to my high anxiety - things like flying away on holiday or going on away on weekends with friends.


Once cured, I wanted to let others know what was going on with me and maybe share the technique with people that were also having a similar problem. I had no idea then where this would lead me.


I discovered many people I knew had suffered from something very similar. I began sharing my ideas, and put together a rough version of what is now known as the PANIC AWAY course. The basis of the course is built around the technique that eliminates panic attacks. This technique later became know as the ONE MOVE technique.


The results were astounding. People were thanking me for having restored a quality of life they thought would never return. All I was doing was showing them the way I found my way out of an anxiety disorder. People reported instant panic reversal and later results confirmed that the technique was not only effective straight away but also a permanent drug free solution to a range of panic disorders.


I have since taught the course to thousands of people around the world with similar success. The bottom line is that there is great hope for anyone suffering from
panic attacks. The course has developed in leaps and bounds. I have coached people who have suffered from anxiety disorders for over 30 years, and they have reported excellent results within days of using the course and applying the tools and techniques.

Does your anxiety make you fear you may lose control ?--Anxiety and Panic Attacks

People who have anxiety and panic attacks often fear doing something out of character or fear they might lose control in front of other people.



If you are such a person I hope to put your mind at rest. Firstly, it is important to rememb er you are feeling this way because of the heightened state of stress your body is under. You feel out of touch because of the tension in your body which is mental, physical and emotional. This tension creates inner pressure that makes you feel you have the potential to lose control. I guarantee this will pass as soon as your body returns to a more balanced state.


Once the anxiety dwindles you will stop having that specific fear. You will have to trust me on that as it is difficult to imagine being free in the midst of the constant anxiousness. Remember this- In almost all cases those that fear they might do something out of control never do lose control.

Did you know:


The key difference between someone who is cured of panic attacks and those who are not is really very simple. The one who is cured is not afraid o f panic attacks. I'll try to show you how to one of these people as well.


What if I told you the trick to ending panic and anxiety attacks is to want to have one. That sounds strange but let me explain.
The trick to panic attacks is wanting to have one- the wanting pushes it away. Can you have a panic attack in this very second? No !


You know the saying "What you resist persists." Well that saying applies perfectly to fear. If you resist a situation out of fear, the fear around that issue will persist. How do you stop resisting? You move directly into the path of the anxiety; by doing so it cannot persist.


In essence what that means is that if you daily voluntarily seek out a panic attack you cannot have one. Try in this very moment to have a panic attack and I will guarantee you cannot. You may not realize it but you have always decided to panic. You make the choice by thinking "This is beyond my control."


It may help if you imagine that having a panic attack is like standing on a cliff edge. The anxiety, it seems, is pushing you closer to falling over the edge.


To be rid of the fear you must metaphorically jump. You must jump off the cliff edge and into the anxiety and fear and all the things that you fear most.


How do you jump –You jump by wanting to have a panic attack.
You go about your day asking for anxiety and panic attacks to appear.


Your real safety is the fact that a panic attack will never harm you. That is medical fact. You are safe, or the sensations are wild but no harm will come to you. Your heart is racing but no harm will come to you. The jump becomes nothing more than a two inch drop! Perfectly safe.


Trust that medical knowledge. Be assured by it -Think of all the attacks you have had to date and come out the other end. Was there any lasting physical damage to you, other than the mounting feeling of panic?


Now you are going to do it differently – You actively seek out the attack like an adventure seeker. Begin right now and for the rest of the day go out and actua lly hoping you will have a panic attack.



Some of this information forms a small part of the Panic Away course I teach which eliminates panic attacks for people immediately. My course Panic Away has proved highly successful with both long and short term sufferers of panic attacks.

Positive Brain Washing-Thinking

Brainwashing is a term perceived in a negative way by most people. But you know what, I think our brains could actually do with a bit of a washing sometimes!

You see, everyone comes into this world with a clear mind, and a belief that everything is possible. All is positive and well. Remember as a child, you could do and become everything, without any boundaries!

As we grow up however, we pick up beliefs, fears and limitations from our surroundings and peers that gradually form the person we are today. A lot of these beliefs unfortunately are negative and as we build our lives they limit us in our actions and being. Very often they therefore contribute to unhappiness or feeling unfulfilled in our lives and business.

It can be the smallest -- seemingly harmless -- remark from a mother like “just let me handle that, you are no good at that” that can convince you that you are not good at a certain task. A teacher who calls a pupil “the clumsy one” can do more harm with this remark than he realizes when repeated often enough. With every remark the belief is harnessed further in the child that it indeed is clumsy. Even though a remark is said with a smile or with the intend to be funny, it still leaves a legacy in the belief system.

This programming of course doesn’t stop at adulthood, it keeps influencing people in all stages of life. We are being influenced by our parents, kids, partner, friends, colleagues, television, newspapers, magazines and so on. Sometimes positive, but very often in a negative way. No wonder we limit ourselves in so many ways! Belief is the key to your success. If you belief you can do something, you can. If you belief you can’t do something, you will be right too.

The good news is: we can “reprogram” our



mind and replace our negative, limiting beliefs for positive contributing ones. Positive brainwashing is what I like to call it!

An example is “I easily do 10 sales calls a day”. Or “I am an excellent negotiator”. By stating this positive affirmation regularly during your day, you will achieve the goal you have set for yourself easier. This positive self talk helps your mind to overcome beliefs that you have about yourself, that limit your success and actions. Compare our mind with a computer: when you change the input, the output will change accordingly.

So if you have the limiting belief that you are no good in public speaking (probably because of negative experiences in the past) you can actually reprogram your mind by stating the following affirmation: “ I am an excellent public speaker. I love to speak for huge audiences and people love to hear me talk”. By affirming this belief over and over, you actually start to believe it and your mind will find a way to make this statement a reality. At some stage, you might decide to do a course in public speaking, or someone might ask you to speak at some kind of seminar, which forces you to work on your speaking skills. Somehow, this positive affirmation help you to reach the ‘goal’ you have set for yourself, and open doors for you that would normally would have been kept closed. And this works for virtually everything. Belief, and it will happen.

Imagine standing for a big river, with a heavy stream. You have to cross it, but you don’t think you can actually do it. Your belief is keeping you from crossing, although you physically should be able to do it easily. It just looks too hard! Then someone else comes up from behind you, and without thinking starts crossing the river and gets to the other side. His belief was positive, and he knew he could do it. The interesting thing is that this will probably influence your belief: “if he can do it, I can do it too” and you will then cross the river without any problem at all. Similar things happen when a group of people is introduced to the phenomenon of fire walking. At first a big group of people will say that there is no way they will walk on fire. Until…other people with higher beliefs go first, then all of a sudden everyone else rushes over to do it as well.

So think about YOUR beliefs, and try to discover which belief are actually holding you back from reaching your full potential in your life. Then, one by one, start eliminating these beliefs from your system. Formulate a positive affirmation that counters your negative belief, and re affirm it daily. Write them in your diary, on your bathroom mirror, next to your computer; anywhere you see it often and say the affirmation out loud as often as possible. You will be happily surprised by the results!

Mind Conditioning

FREUD says: all your thinking is association. If you see a dog in the
street, you start thinking about all the dogs you have seen from
childhood. Then you remember your childhood, you remember a teacher when
you were a child. There is no logical connection. When you start
verbalizing you miss reality. Every day the sun rises; every day the sun
sets; every day something new happens. To you it's one more Friday, one
more Saturday, another Sunday. The moment you label it as Friday, you
think you know everything about that day. You just take it for granted.
Because you take people for granted you don't enjoy your relationships.
You judge people first and collect arguments to support your judgment.

You can never step into the same river twice, because by that time it
has moved. People also move, they change, they are not the same as who
you met before. By the time you meet them again your husband/wife has
changed; something is added to them; either intelligence or foolishness.
But you don't agree. You hold on to the same mental setup.

Sushruta wrote 5,000 years ago. He talks about open heart surgeries and
transplants. He was a great enlightened Master. He said: every six
months your liver replaces itself completely. Not even one part is same.
Once in 21 days your intestine replaces itself. Modern day physiologists
agree. Every cell is replaced continuously.

Sushruta says: your mental structure plays a major role when these
changes take place. A disciple asks him: why do we carry diseases over a
number of years? Why does the new liver carry the same disease? Sushruta
replies: you don't believe you have changed, that's why. You carry the
same mental frame despite body change. That mental frame retains the
disease. You don't let go of that frame, you don't let go of that
disease. You don't let go of your samskara. Samskara is the powerful
mental root that drags you to travel the same. path.

Like Pavlov's dogs which came running and salivated even when no food
was served but the bell was rung, whenever you remember that past
situation or person you react the same way, you move in the same rut. In
the morning you worry about office, by evening you worry about your wife
and children, unconsciously, without reason. The mood remains low even
if you do not realize why. You do not live based on intelligence, you
live based on information.
