15.01.2022 Anxiety is all about energy. It’s our brain and body giving us what we need to move ourselves to safety, either by fighting or fleeing. . Every symptom of anxie...ty is driven by that energy - avoidance (fight), big feelings, anger (fight), restlessness, the ‘what if’s’, and the physiological symptoms (sick tummies, sore muscles, racey heart) - you know how it goes. . If you can help your kiddos find somewhere else for that energy to go, it will help to calm anxiety and bring it back to small enough. A few minutes of something - a run, talking, breathing, grounding - can make a difference. So too can giving their fight or flight another outlet. If they are anxious about a situation or a trauma (such as anxiety about the planet, a natural disaster or a gloabal trauma), this can happen by helping them find a way they can help. . The key is getting kids on board in the moment when anxiety already has a firm hold of them. This can be tricky, so it can help to talk about a plan or strategies when they are calm. If they can start to be aware of their cues (the signs in their body or their thoughts that anxiety is about to swoon in and wrap its woolly arms around them), they can start to catch anxiety before it takes hold. Doing this will make it much easier to short-circuit anxiety before it gets too big. . Remember though, just because someone tells you how to play tennis doesn’t mean you’re going to go out and win a grand slam the next day. . Good things take time. Great things take even longer. We’re building beautiful small humans into beautiful big ones, and their greatest elevation towards this will be our love, patience and the invitation we offer all their feelings to be there along the way.
