Anxiety Support / by starryRiver83

...See more Hi everyone,  I just wanted to share a few videos which I find help with my anxiety and I know many of the people I speak to in 1-2-1 chats often find that meditation and relaxing music can often relieve their anxiety. When I was at university, I had to get support for my anxiety, which involved weekly meetings with mental health specialist. In our sessions we would do a ten minute/ twenty minute meditation exercises and she recorded them for me so that I could listen to them as often as I needed. Unfortunately I can't upload those specific ones, but prior to being given the CD, I decided to look online for some videos which would help. Everyone is different when it comes to anxiety and how to relieve their anxiety, but I find these videos, in particular, are very useful. First of all, these are my favourite meditation videos, because they are quite short but they really help to take your mind off your trigger points and concentrate purely on your breathing and removing negative thoughts and stresses from your body as you do so. ~~10 Minute Guided Meditation to ease Anxiety, Worry, and Urgency | Soothing | instant Calm | POWERFUL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoYnqvadurg   Training Your Mind to Come from a Place of Love Instead of Fear - Guided Meditation / Hypnotherapy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jryck2naf90   Hypnotherapy Relaxation & Stress Relief Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qnbuq7SWqWM   (the last one is my particular favourite: its 9 minutes long and yet really effective)   I know, as well that some people benefit from music, and on occasion, I use the following videos when I am working or feeling slightly anxious but have something to do, I have these playing in the background:   ~~Focus Music: Let go of Mental Anxiety, de-stress music, Focus and Concentrate, Relax music ☯080 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7-H8_7Ck6k   1 Hour Calm Music, Soft Soothing Instrumental Music, Spa Music, Massage Music ☯120 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cljv53Wvnx4   Meditation Deep Relaxation Music: Yoga Music, Calming Music, Soothing Music ☯126   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0X_OqLDusNY   So those are my favourite videos that I thought I would share. Feel free to try these out and see which ones work for you. I was also told to make time in my day to listen to these videos and help me relax, which is why I like the shorter meditation videos, because I can always spare 10-20 minutes to use them. Make it a regular thing if you feel you need that relief from a day when you have been really struggling from your anxiety.   If anyone has any more videos or similar resources which help them, feel free to share in this forum, I would be happy to hear more. Best wishes, starryRiver83

Best listener I've come across. So kind and caring and actually listened.
Very understand and helpful. I was about to have a panic attack before I spoke with her but she helped me work through a lot of feelings.
She really seemed to understand what I was saying. She helped me to stop worrying and provided me with some good tips. Thank you! :)
Very helpfull talk , great advice
You really helped me out a lot in such short period of time ... thanks a bunch !
Really loved how this listener held the focus of the conversation, by re-phrasing what I was feeling and making a kind of resume of it, it helped me get a better understanding emotionally about how I was feeling and what I was struggling with. Really appreciated that, also liked that there also were some practical suggestions on how to work through this! Great job! :)
Understanding and gets what I am going through and provided great feedback to my messages that helped me clarify some of the things in my mind
