Summary

In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I discuss the concept of sacred resilience as a way to overcome stress and anxiety. Many people focus on treating the mind and body through stress reduction and mindfulness techniques, but they often overlook the spiritual aspect of anxiety. I want to emphasize that I'm not talking about religion or dogma, but rather the spiritual side of being.

When anxiety is rooted in spiritual concerns, it can lead to a heightened awareness of mortality and a sense of separation in the universe, which can contribute to panic attacks. This form of anxiousness is often disregarded, and I want to bring attention to it. It's important to cultivate everyday sacredness by celebrating each moment, connecting to something greater than ourselves, and prioritizing our lives according to our values.

In the next segment, I introduce an exercise to write your own obituary. This exercise is not meant to make you feel bad, but rather to help you reflect and get back on track if you feel lost. When we are grounded in our values and actively working towards our goals, our nervous system feels less on edge. We can cultivate sacred moments filled with gratitude, awe, compassion, and inner peace. These moments are precious and essential to our healing.

By creating stillness and taking mini timeouts from our daily busyness, we can add sacredness to our routine and transform our lives. It's important to be aware and involve our hearts in our lives. By dedicating time to the spiritual dimension of our existence, we can witness the awe-inspiring journey of our healing process.

The topic of sacredness and spirituality is often overlooked, but it can bring joy and help on our healing journeys. If you have anything to share on this subject, I'd love to hear from you. As Albert Einstein said, "The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical." Stay well, and I'll be back with another podcast soon.
