Anxiety & Panic - Two Steps to Take Before the Healing Process Begins
By: Joanne King
Anxiety sufferers are usually at a loose end after trying methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Techniques, Hypnosis, Sessions with psychologists, Meditation, Herbal Alternatives and probably the most popular of them all is Medications such as anti-depressants and Benzodiazepine's. Now I was no different to any other sufferer, I was pulling my hair out in the hopes of one of these alternatives would kick in and free me of this dreadful nightmare that I lived, day in and day out for years. Unable to leave my house in fear something dreadful was going to happen to me. But after plenty of research I did eventually eliminate my anxiety and panic disorder. And it certainly wasn’t from taking medications, or hypnosis or CBT or any of the worlds most practiced techniques (which have always given a rather poor response in curing anxiety and panic attacks). Two Steps to Begin the Healing Process Step One... Acceptance Accepting that what you have is Anxiety and Panic Disorder. And yes, I know this can be an extremely hard thing to accept. You’re sure that it always must be something else, your heart is racing (you think that you must be having a heart attack). You’re finding it difficult to swallow (so now your thoughts sway to you must have throat cancer). You find it difficult to breathe (and in that moment you’re sure your going to pass out or die, or maybe you think you have lung cancer or emphysema). Yes, I know how these thoughts can take control of your mind. But in order to become well again, you must accept all these feelings are, are anxiety and panic attacks. Step Two… Trust I struggled with this issue a lot. And I certainly understand when you have lost all faith. After all, you’ve tried all these other techniques with little to no success. So you begin to wonder why “this time” would be any different to all the other methods you have tried to your wits end. But the moment you give up all hope and lose trust in any other possible natural method, than this will be when you prevent you’re healing and eliminating of Anxiety & Panic Disorder. Anxiety and Panic Attacks can be eliminated naturally and for good! I’m living proof of that. © Joanne King - http://www.anxiety-panic-free.com About the Author - Joanne King is a former sufferer of Anxiety & Panic Attacks.

How to Benefit from the Mind-Body Connection
(excerpt)
You are about to gain insight into the
mind-body connection. The number of
people who truly understand these principles on our
planet are relatively few.
There is an undeniable connection between our minds and
bodies, you can learn
to use this fact to your benefit.
Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and
Miracles" was once a
distraught cancer surgeon until he
began to understand the greater principles
of the mind-
body connection. He felt dragged down by the artificial
barriers
that existed between patient and doctor, and the
helplessness he often felt as
a result of his inability
to effectively serve those patients. Eventually, those
barriers
were disintegrated by Dr. Siegel's recognition
and growing understanding of the
mind-body connection and
how it could serve his patients and himself.
Dr. Siegel, or Bernie as he began to have his patients
refer to him, had some
startling realizations as a cancer surgeon. He found that
there were actually
quite a few people in the world that successfully beat
the statistics on cancer
survival. He began to recognize that a patient's ability
to defeat something as
serious as cancer had to do with the patient's mind and
attitude about their
disease.
