  • This To Shall Pass - Anxiety As a Transient State

by Melissa Gale

Finding comfort in the knowledge that anxiety is a transient state can be incredibly empowering. Anxiety, while often overwhelming, is a natural response to stress and can serve as a reminder to take a step back and assess the situation. It's important to remember that while it feels intense in the moment, it doesn't define you and won't last foreverHere are a few tips that might help you manage those anxious moments:

  1. Practice Deep Breathing: Simple deep-breathing exercises can help calm your mind and body. Try inhaling deeply for a count of four, holding for a count of four, and exhaling slowly for a count of four.
  2. Grounding Techniques: Focus on the present by using your senses. Notice five things you can see, four things you can touch, three things you can hear, two things you can smell, and one thing you can taste. This can help anchor you in the moment and reduce feelings of anxiety.
  3. Physical Activity: A short walk or some gentle stretching, can help release tension and improve your mood. Exercise increases endorphins, which are natural mood lifters.
  4. Flower Essence Remedy: We love using our Tranquil + Calm Flower essence (our take on the traditional rescue remedy) as an alternative to gently ease anxiety. Bleded with Australian bush flower and bach flower essences. Take a few drops under the tongue or in a glass of water to restore balance and soothe the nervous system.
  5. Vagus Nerve Reset: As a last resort in our family we have used the face into a bowl of ice water, its sharp, shocking & sometimes funny, it can snap you (or the kids) right back into the present moment.
