1
Anxiety is on the rise, but anxiety itself is very natural.
2
And so people are like, I want to get rid of my anxiety.
3
And I'm like, no, you want to get rid of certain aspects of your anxiety.
4
Because anxiety is a natural response to fear, into stress, into uncertainty, and more specifically perceived threats.
5
If you have anxiety, when you're walking down, like you start getting a real anxious feeling when you're walking in the dark,
6
going through a crowded, dark room and you start getting anxious, well, maybe that's something that's telling you you should be anxious so that you protect yourself.
7
Or if you're going through a dark alley and you get anxious, that's a good thing.
8
But when you're anxious and feel anxiety when you're sitting in your house watching TV or just hanging out,
9
probably not the best time to be anxious.
10
There's nothing to really fear in that moment.
11
And so it's a good thing for humans because what it is is it is our brain
12
projecting itself into the future and then telling our body to prepare for some sort of possible threat.
13
So think about that for a second.
14
Anxiety is our brain projecting into the future and telling our body, get ready.
15
So at the core of anxiety is the thought of I am not safe.
16
I need to prepare my body for some sort of attack
17
or to be able to run or to be able to fight or to be able to freeze.
18
and so your safety in some way feels threatened believe it
19
or not and
20
so the question is what does it feel threatened by that's
21
what you really need to figure out need to take a step back
22
when you're feeling anxious and saying like where do i not feel safe right now so
23
if you get i'll give a couple examples you get anxious
24
about public speaking you might show up in sweaty palms
25
and your heart's racing
26
and you start to think about oh my gosh i'm getting really anxious about this public speaking that I need to do, the fear behind it might be,
27
I'm not safe because I might be humiliated or I have to give a presentation at work.
28
I'm not safe because what if I screw up this presentation in public speaking
29
and then I get fired and I lose my house and then I go broke and they live on the street.
30
That's my safety being taken from me in some sort of way.
31
So my body's preparing for some form of attack.
32
If you start to get real anxious when you go out to a social events.
33
It might be like, I'm not safe.
34
I might say something wrong, or I might be rejected, or I might be kicked out of the tribe.
35
And so I don't feel safe.
36
And so I have this feeling of anxiety when I think about social events.
37
Maybe it's you were raised by a mother who was really, really worried about health concerns.
38
And so maybe you get anxiety about your health.
39
And so how it shows up is you're excessively Googling anytime your elbow hurts or something like that.
40
And so you get body scans or you're doing frequent doctor visits all the time.
41
It's like, I'm not safe because there might be something wrong with me.
42
There must be something wrong with me.
43
I got to make sure that anything that's wrong with me, I've got to fix.
44
You know, maybe you're getting really anxious about being late somewhere.
45
So you're rushing and you're frantic and you're sweating and your heart's racing and you're irritable.
46
And it's like, I'm not safe because if I show up late, everyone's going to see that I'm late.
47
Others might think that I'm irresponsible and that they might not want to hang out with me.
48
So once again, I'm getting kicked out of the tribe again in some sort of way.
49
And we will be right back.
50
Hey, real quick, let me interrupt this episode.
51
I have a huge announcement.
52
I have an in-person event, three days this year in Austin, Texas happening.
53
If you want to learn more about it, you can join the waitlist right now.
54
And the people who join the waitlist will get the biggest discounts and the cheapest prices for this three-day event.
55
You can go to freedomwaitlist.com or you can scan that QR code that's right there.
56
And now back to the show.
57
Maybe you're sitting at work and you're having a great day
58
and you're just putting your stuff together and just writing your emails.
59
You're sitting there and then bing, a notification from your boss pops up and it says, hey, are you free today at four?
60
And you just get anxious immediately.
61
And you're like, oh my God, I'm not safe because I might get fired.
62
There must be something that I did wrong.
63
Maybe they're downsizing.
64
Maybe I'm not good enough in some sort of way.
65
I can't lose my job because I got to feed my children.
66
I've got to feed myself.
67
I've got to pay my mortgage.
68
Or maybe you're sitting there and your phone buzzes and it says mom calling.
69
And you get all anxious.
70
You get all tight.
71
You can feel yourself starts getting anxious.
72
You know, like, oh my God, I'm not safe.
73
Maybe there's something going on with her.
74
Maybe there's something going on with dad.
75
I might have to deal with something stressful.
76
Maybe she tells me that dad fell down the stairs.
77
And it's like, there's all of these safety and these fears that are there.
78
And so in some sort of way, when you have these anxious feelings, it's you feel like there's a threat in your environment in some sort of way.
79
It's good to have anxiety when you need it.
80
Like I said, when you're walking through a dark alley to have those anxious feelings to prepare you just in case.
81
It's not good when it's like an everyday all day kind of thing.
82
Chronic anxiety interferes with your daily life and we need to address it and it can be overcome.
83
That's the best part about it.
84
Anxiety almost always comes from your thoughts.
85
So really when we feel anxious, we need to take a step back and be like, what was I just thinking?
86
And so we're going to go over some research back techniques to kind of help you overcome that anxiety, those anxious thoughts, and to be able to pull your body out of that anxiety,
87
that anxious feeling that you have.
88
And so when you look at anxiety, first off, the definition of anxiety itself is a feeling of unease, such as worry or fear that can range from mild to severe.
89
It is normal and essential human emotion that serves as an adaptive response to danger or challenges.
90
That's the definition of anxiety.
91
So let me say it one more time, just so you can understand the actual definition is a feeling of unease, such as worry or fear that can range from mild to severe.
92
and it is normal and essential human emotion that serves as an adaptive response to danger or challenges.
93
Anxiety can show up in two different ways for you.
94
It can be emotional symptoms, worry, fear, irritability, difficult concentrating, restlessness.
95
It can be physical symptoms, muscle tension, headaches, sweating, trembling, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath.
96
You can even have gastrointestinal issues.
97
So that's how it shows up in the body.
98
And so let me just show you a few ways that you can kind of let it out of the body, okay?
99
The first strategy is a relaxation technique for reduction of your anxiety.
100
You've heard me say it over and over and over again.
101
Deep breathing.
102
When your emotion is high, in some sort of way, your logic is low.
103
You're actually not thinking very well.
104
And so when you're really anxious, you tap into your fight, flight, or freeze.
105
and that's where your animalistic survival part of your brain turns on.
106
And your thinking and processing and executive decision-making turns off. And
107
so get yourself feeling a little bit better by using the
108
next few strategies where you can calm yourself back down so
109
that you can think the right way so that you can realize that maybe it's not that much of a threat.
110
So the first thing I always recommend is deep breathing because if I'm going to sit there and go, oh my God, I'm anxious.
111
What was I just thinking?
112
What am I fearing?
113
Why do I not feel safe?
114
But like, I'm not calmed down at this point.
115
It's going to make it really hard for me to think in a smart way.
116
And so deep breathing exercises help activate your body's relaxation response, and in turn reduces your anxiety levels.
117
And so it's real simple.
118
I always recommend five seconds in, 10 seconds out, and it slows your heart rate down.
119
It releases more carbon dioxide from your body and it lowers your stress levels.
120
So as soon as you start to notice anxious feeling, immediately go back to the breath.
121
The fastest way to change your state is to go back to your breath every single time.
122
Okay.
123
That's the first thing you got to deal with the body.
124
You got to calm it down.
125
Then we can start to talk about the thinking side of things and how to change it, which goes to strategy number two, which is something called cognitive restructuring.
126
It's a technique that involves identifying and challenging negative thought patterns or fears that are contributing to your anxiety, right?
127
This is where you're going to be like, well, what was I just thinking?
128
I was thinking this, you know, email from my boss.
129
I'm definitely getting fired.
130
It's like, well, hold on.
131
Let me not just go down that road.
132
It might be he wants to talk with me
133
because I've been doing so well might be because of the fact
134
that we have a presentation for a competitor to eat a competitor out in a week
135
or something like that and
136
so what you want to do with cognitive restructuring it's it's rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy
137
and it's been shown to be effective with treating anxiety disorders specifically
138
so the first thing you're going to do is you're going
139
to identify your negative thoughts that's the first step is to become aware of the negative thoughts
140
that fuel your anxiety notice when you don't feel good become aware of how your body feels
141
And usually you'll start to notice the anxiety inducing thoughts after you notice your body's reaction to it.
142
Most of the time, our anxiety, like our thoughts around anxiety, come under the conscious mind, the subconscious.
143
So it's like, bing, the email from the boss comes through almost immediately holy shit
144
i feel anxious i'm feeling all this anxiety you don't even notice the thought
145
that is in between the bing and the body
146
but there's always some sort of thought and so you have to understand
147
when you take a step back when you do the breathing
148
and then you say like what was i just thinking you'll usually start to notice the thought after
149
that you can usually start to use cognitive restructuring.
150
And so what you want to do, that's the first step is to notice it and all that.
151
And the second step is to challenge the negative thoughts.
152
Once you identify the negative thoughts, evaluate the accuracy of these thoughts.
153
Try alternative explanations.
154
Try another perspective.
155
How valid is your thought that is making you anxious?
156
Psychologists have found that 85% of what we worry about never happens.
157
Never.
158
Out of the remaining 15%, only 3% of it happens the way that we think that it will.
159
The other 12% of that 15% doesn't happen as bad as we think,
160
which means 97% of what we think and worry about and have anxiety over and mull over and ruin our day,
161
97% of it doesn't happen or turns out better than we think that it's going to.
162
And so it's like, how can I take a step back
163
and use cognitive restructuring to challenge the thought that is giving me anxiety?
164
So that's the second thing.
165
And number three is to replace your negative thoughts.
166
So after you challenge the negative thought, replace the negative thought with a more balanced,
167
realistic thought that can help you reduce your anxiety levels.
168
Okay.
169
I'm starting to notice I'm getting anxious.
170
Why is that?
171
It's because my boss just emailed me.
172
What was I just thinking?
173
What am I afraid of?
174
Where do I not feel safe?
175
I feel like maybe my boss is going to fire me.
176
Okay.
177
All right.
178
Is that real?
179
Am I actually going to be fired?
180
Probably not.
181
Is there possibly another explanation for why he's sending me an email about wanting to meet with me at four o'clock today?
182
Well, actually, yeah, that does make sense because I was talking to him yesterday about X, Y, and Z, and maybe he wants to meet with me about it.
183
Okay, that makes more sense.
184
So that's strategy number two, use cognitive restructuring.
185
Strategy number three is to use something called exposure therapy.
186
So it's a proven technique that involves gradually and systematically confronting situations
187
or objects or thoughts that you fear until the anxiety subsides in some sort of way.
188
And so this process will
189
help you learn that your fears most of the time are pretty irrational
190
and it allows you to start to tolerate the discomfort of those fears
191
and the anxiety that you're starting to have and
192
so what you're going to do is you're going to first off identify what's causing your anxiety this alone
193
when you just are able to kind of shine a light on the actual fear or the limiting belief or the
194
quote unquote lack of safety that you're feeling, just being able to kind of put it into words and to identify it helps a lot of people feel less anxious.
195
A lot of people feel less anxious after they identify it.
196
And people feel less anxious when they take a step back and they find out what they're anxious about, which is real funny because most people think they know what they're anxious about,
197
but then they take a step back and they realize that they're not anxious about that thing.
198
They're anxious about the way that they're perceiving that thing or the thoughts around that thing.
199
And so you identify your anxiety inducing thoughts and that alone in turn can make you feel less anxious.
200
You'd think that it would make you feel more anxious, but it actually makes you feel less anxious because you're like, oh yeah, it's usually not that big of a deal or it's less of a deal than you thought it was.
201
So maybe you notice that you've had this like underlying feeling of anxiety all week long
202
and you don't know why you're like, I've just been feeling it's Thursday and I feel like I've been anxious the past four days.
203
You're not really sure why.
204
Okay, well, take a step back, breathe, realize that you felt anxious since what time?
205
When did you start noticing your anxiety?
206
Oh yeah, that's right.
207
Since I had the meeting with my boss on Monday, today's Thursday, and on Monday, he told me I'm gonna need to give a presentation for work in two weeks.
208
And I am terrified of public speaking, and I'm even more terrified to do it in front of the entire company.
209
Okay, so that's the first thing is to identify the anxious feeling.
210
And then maybe I give myself gradual exposure to this presentation.
211
And so that's why when you're doing public speaking and you have to give a presentation, try to finish it and then practice it as many times as you possibly can.
212
You're trying to expose yourself to it.
213
The same way if someone's like terrified of a snake, you don't wanna just take a snake and put it on their lap, but if you have them in one room, on the complete opposite side of the room,
214
and on the opposite side of the room they have a snake, they might start to freak out, but if snake is in the box, it can't get out, they might start to freak out, they might start to freak out, gradually their body will calm down,
215
gradually it'll calm down, you bring it a little bit closer, gradually the body will calm down.
216
This is what exposure therapy is.
217
So you can expose yourself to the thing that's making you anxious.
218
And so what you do is you finish your presentation
219
and what you're gonna do is you're gonna read it out loud maybe 10 times the first day.
220
And then what you're gonna do is you're gonna go home and the next day, you're gonna practice the entire presentation.
221
You're gonna take your slides, you're gonna put it on your TV at home, you're gonna present it for nobody,
222
maybe your children's teddy bears when everybody goes to sleep and you're gonna go through the entire thing.
223
Practice it in your living room with PowerPoint 10 times.
224
Okay, that's a little bit more exposure.
225
Okay, I feel a little bit more confident about this.
226
And then what I'm going to do is maybe the week before the presentation, I'm going to stay late at work one night after everybody leaves,
227
and I'm going to practice it in the room that I will be presenting.
228
And I'm just going to practice it 10 times over and over and over again.
229
And then the night before, I'm going to be practicing it again.
230
And I'm going to come in early the day of, and I'm going to practice it before anybody else gets there.
231
and what happens is i've had
232
so much exposure to this presentation by the time i actually give the presentation i've already done it 50 times
233
and i've done it multiple times in the room
234
that i'm actually giving the presentation the only difference now besides the fact
235
that it's basically memorized is
236
that there's humans inside of the seats this is what exposure therapy to your anxiety will look like
237
and so that's really where to help you and
238
so that's the the three tips to So the three strategies to help you with it.
239
There's some simple lifestyle changes that I wanna give you guys to help you reduce your anxiety
240
that are just proven that you can do where if you have more anxiety, this is just ways to help.
241
First thing is exercise regularly.
242
Physical activity has been shown over and over and over again to reduce your anxiety by increasing your endorphins.
243
It promotes relaxation and improves your overall mood.
244
Regular exercise, at least 30 minutes per day can have really massive long-term benefits on your anxiety reduction.
245
That's the first thing.
246
Second thing is your nutrition.
247
When you have a really good, well-balanced nutrition, it manages your anxiety as well.
248
If you have too much coffee, it gives you more anxiety.
249
If you have too much sugar, it gives you more anxiety.
250
If you eat too much bags of chips and shit food, it's gonna give you more anxiety.
251
So try to eat more whole foods.
252
Try to limit your caffeine.
253
Try to limit your sugar.
254
Try to stay hydrated.
255
Dehydration can actually increase your anxiety levels.
256
So many people just don't drink enough water.
257
Like so many of your problems will be fixed if you just drink more water.
258
Your anxiety, you might have less fat if you end up doing it.
259
You might have better bowel movements.
260
So stay hydrated.
261
Drink less alcohol.
262
That's another thing as well that will help you. So that's number two.
263
Pay attention to your nutrition.
264
Number three, prioritize your sleep.
265
Sleep is really important.
266
Poor sleep can worsen your anxiety a lot.
267
I don't know about you, but if I have a really bad night of sleep, sometimes I notice that I'm more anxious throughout the day.
268
And so prioritize your sleep have some sort of regular sleep schedule.
269
And then the fourth thing that is huge that I recommend that you guys do is spend less time on your phone, spend less time in front of your TVs.
270
There's been study after study after study that has shown
271
that people that spend more time in front of screens have more anxiety than those that don't.
272
Put your phone away, get away from your TV, go for a walk in nature, be around people who you want to spend time with.
273
All of these things help with your anxiety as well.
274
And so I just really think that it's important for you to understand that first off, anxiety is not a bad thing.
275
Chronic anxiety is a bad thing.
276
Anxiety is built into you for a reason.
277
It is a protection mechanism.
278
When it is happening, when you're sitting at your desk at work, what is that protection mechanism trying to protect you from?
279
And then also to understand that anxiety is something that we can all work through.
280
As long as it's not a chronic,
281
like actual anxiety disorder, that is something that's happening inside of your brain that is uncurable or whatever it might be.
282
Usually most of us are just anxious because of our thoughts
283
and because it's just simple adjustments that we can make in our lives.
284
And so that right there is the ultimate guide to stop feeling anxious about your anxiety.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
