Acceptance Is an Important Aid in Managing Anxiety - Episode 115 Awareness That Heals
-
- メンタルヘルス
In this second guided meditation focused on managing anxiety, we continue using the elevator metaphor. As we proceed to the next "floor," we reach a place where you will learn to care for yourself and develop self-compassion. You can gently say to your anxiety that you wish to recognize and continue to increase your capacity to bring heart and wisdom into your life. It will be helpful to recall the moments when you've been anxious in the past and remember how tolerance and kindness have been absent during most of those moments. The key theme of this elevator floor is to remember to be more tolerant and kinder to yourself when you are anxious.
One way to develop greater tolerance and acceptance is to first recognize anxiety and then gradually learn how to dis-identify with it. This practice allows you to observe anxiety without being overwhelmed by it. Dis-identification helps increase the desire to care for yourself and become more tolerant and accepting of your anxiety. Try adopting an internal tone of voice that is kinder, sweeter, more tolerant, and more accepting. Create the space to breathe and view anxiety as a passing feeling. For more severe anxiety, it will be necessary to co-exist with the anxiety with continued tolerance and acceptance. You need to remember that being anxious and caring simultaneously is a depth of maturity that will support you to live your life with your heart and wisdom no matter how long it lasts.
