A Tip for Handling Anxiety 
by Terry J. Hodgkinson

Working with a client today, she kept commenting on how her anxiety was beating her up, knocking her over and keeping her from reaching her goal. So I took her to the Chung Fu Martial Arts Training and Meditation School room and taught her a Tai Chi grounded stance. I then asked her to imagine that she had roots, like the roots of a tree that went 5 times deeper and wider into the ground than she was tall.

Then I asked her if she would imagine wind impacting a strongly grounded tree, like a bamboo tree. It will sway in the wind moving sometimes back and forth as well as maybe side to side but it always finds and comes back to its centre. She said yes, she could see that.

I took up the stance and had her push me on different angles and my body remaining supple and swayed with the force and yet kept returning back to centre. No matter how much force she pushed with, my body would go with it and then return. Then I had her take up the stance and I pushed her while reminding her to continue visualizing how strong her grounding was, deep into the ground, yet how supple she was to flow with the force and return. I pushed her from different angles and she would move around and then return, not losing her balance or her centre.

Then I changed the wording to help her re-frame her personal experience with anxiety. I said, "Now instead of wind imagine that this is anxiety pushing you around; keep visualizing how deep your roots go and simply flow with it, always returning to centre. Just like the wind, the anxiety does not knock you down: you simply sway back to your centre and continue on with your journey."

Her eyes lit up, new neural pathways had been created. Now if she practices what she learned today those newly established neural pathways will grow stronger everyday and so will she!

I love when I can mix my martial arts, NLP and Coaching experience altogether to assist my clients in perceiving and thus experiencing a new reality, one that works better for them.​​​​​​​
