Alive and Awake

How many times you saw the message from that friend that has so many parties planned and a full month of events, and he or she is inviting you to one of them and you, A) delete the message like you never got it, B) reply after a week that you were sick, C) just immediately say – sorry I have to do some stuff that I already planned months ago? We all know that A, B and C are all lies, right? You will be on the sofa, watching Netflix and having a bit of a FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). But, FOMO, will not be stronger than your fear of seeing all the people that you would see if you would go. So, Netflix it is.

Hello, my name is Selena, and welcome to my podcast, Alive and Awake. It`s been a few episodes now and I guess it is time to do some meditations. Enjoy. Reset. Breath. And then please, give me feedback. That would mean a lot to somebody who is really really not an expert. Somebody self-taught and just wants to help people. Thank you.

In this episode I will address a few things that work for me as home remedies for anxiety. They do not have to work for you. And if you are unsure about any of this, please consult your healthcare provider. Thank you.

Last time when I had a panic attack, I did not even notice that I have one. I was so used to being anxious and in a state of fight or flight. It was normal for me that as soon as I open my eyes in the morning, I feel like I am drowning, my muscles tense and if I were conscience enough of myself, I could even realize that I was holding my breath, literally.

How was it possible for the person, who was working so hard on herself for all these years to end up in this situation?

Apparently, I was having a big problem. And I was in desperate need of a solution.

Why this podcast among so many? Because we need to find the path through the woods that leads us to the future without fear, war, but future where scientist collaborate with spiritual healer, and priest learns how to approach neurosurgeon and find the solution for the underlying problem. To idealistic? Maybe? But what do we lose if we try?

Anyway, step one. Do you know who you are? If not, even better. Just be ready to go on the wild journey!
