1
It's not an illustrious category to belong to, of course, but there are plenty of us at least.
2
We worry about work, money, being left, illness, disappointing, over-promising, madness, disgrace, just to start the list.
3
We worry in the early hours, we worry on holiday, we worry at parties, and we worry all the time while we're trying to smile and seem normal to good people who depend on us.
4
Thus, it can feel pretty unbearable at moments.
5
A standard approach when trying to assuage our blizzard of worries is to look at each in turn and marshal sensible arguments against their probabilities.
6
But it can, at points, also be helpful not to look at the specifics of every worry and instead to consider the overall position that worry has come to occupy in our lives.
7
There is a hugely fascinating sentence on the topic in an essay by the great English psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott.
8
The catastrophe you fear will happen has in fact already happened.
9
When we worry, we're naturally fixated on what will occur next.
10
It's the future with its boundless possibilities for horror that is the natural arena for exploration by our panicked thoughts.
11
But in Winnicott's unexpected thesis, something else is revealed.
12
The disaster that we fear is going to unfold is actually behind us.
13
There is a paradox here.
14
Why do we keep expecting something to happen that's already happened?
15
Why don't we better distinguish past from present?
16
Winnicott's answer is that it's in the nature of traumatic events from childhood not to be properly processed and as a result, like the dead who have not been adequately buried and mourned, to start to haunt us indiscriminately in adulthood.
17
For example, we may panic that we are about to be humiliated and shamed.
18
There are no particularly strong grounds for this in objective reality, but we are utterly convinced nevertheless because this is precisely what happened to us when we were tiny and at the hands of a parent.
19
Or we worry intensely that we are about to be abandoned in love, not Not because our partner is in any significant way disloyal, but because someone who once looked after us at a very vulnerable point definitely was.
20
A benefit of understanding how much our worries owe to childhood is a new sense that it isn't so much the future we should be distressed about as the past.
21
We can replace dread and apprehension with something sadder yet ultimately more redemptive.
22
Mourning.
23
we can feel profoundly sorry for our younger selves as an alternative to being panicked for our future selves.
24
Appreciating the childhood legacy of worries, we also stand to realise that we can adapt and improve on how we respond to what alarms us.
25
If we have been well-parented, we will have been bequeathed a repertoire good moves to latch onto when crises occur.
26
We know how to reach out, seek help, perhaps move away and only take as much responsibility as we are due.
27
We have access to a corridor through our troubles.
28
But when we have lacked this kind of tutelage, we remain in significant ways in relation to our troubles like the frightened children we once were.
29
We may be tall, drive a car and sound like a grown-up, but faced with concerns, we resort to our toolkit of childlike solutions.
30
We overreact, we go silent, we scream, we have little sense of other options, we feel extremely limited in our powers of protest and agency, we lose all perspective.
31
To which it's appropriate, and in no way patronising, to remind ourselves of what can, in our deeper psychological selves, still be an entirely implausible thought.
32
we are now adults.
33
In other words, in response to the kinds of terror we knew so well at the age of four or eight, we don't have to be either as afraid or as powerless as we were.
34
We can mount a direct protest, we can make an eloquent case for ourselves, we can complain and defend our position, we can rebuild our lives in a new way elsewhere.
35
There are two ways to mitigate risk.
36
To try to remove all risk from the world or to work on one's attitude to risk.
37
Knowing that many of our fears have childhood antecedents, as do our responses to them, can free us to imagine that history won't have to repeat itself exactly.
38
Adult life doesn't have to be as terrifying as our childhoods once were, and our responses to our fears can have some of the greater vigour and confidence that is the natural privilege of grown-ups.
39
We'll still be worried a substantial portion of the time, but perhaps with a little less fragility and fewer burning convictions of total, upcoming catastrophe.

文脈と背景
このビデオは、私たちがどれほど心配するか、そしてその心配にどう対処するかについて探求しています。話者は、仕事、金銭、愛、病気など、私たちが抱える様々な不安の原因を分析します。心配は日常生活のあらゆる瞬間に現れ、時には耐え難いほどになります。この内容は、心配の背後にある幼少期の経験や、それがどのように大人になった今の私たちに影響を与えているかを考えるきっかけとなります。
日常会話のためのトップ5フレーズ
- 心配することは多いけれど、それをどうにかしなければいけない。
- 過去のトラウマが、未来に対する不安を生むことがある。
- 心配の理由は、時には過去の出来事に根ざしている。
- 自分を赦して、悲しむことも大切だ。
- 大人として、もっと洗練された方法で不安に対処できる。
段階的シャドーイングガイド
このビデオの内容は深く、心配に関する心理的な考慮が含まれています。以下のステップで、英語スピーキング練習を向上させる手助けをします。
- 聴く: 初めにビデオを全体的に聴いて、全体のテーマを把握します。何について話しているのかを理解することが大切です。
- 分解する: セクションごとにタイトルや重要なフレーズを見つけ、意味を考えます。心配の根本的な原因が何かを探ります。
- 繰り返す: 各フレーズを声に出して繰り返します。これは、英語の発音を良くするために役立ちます。
- シャドーイング: 話者の発音やリズムに合わせて、同時に発話します。このテクニックは、shadowspeaksメソッドを用いる人に特に効果的です。
- 実践: 日常生活でこれらのフレーズやテーマを使用することを試み、shadow speakのアプローチを持続して実践します。
心配の根元にある心の問題に向き合いながら、このプロセスを進めることで、より自信をもって英語でのコミュニケーションができるようになります。
シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
