The almost natural tendency that we all have in the face of anxiety, or any painful emotion for that matter is to reject it. If you do, they will persist and remain with you for long periods of time. I strongly believe that Floating with anxiety is basically a matter of separating yourself from your anxiety. You don't live in the midst of your anxiety. You don't try to change it in any way. You don't try to repress it. You don't fear your anxiety. You don't analyse it and try to understand why you are panicking. You just float on top of it and let it pass. This means - Not being afraid of your anxiety and fear. Face them gently without judging yourself.Curious how you can achieve this for yourself?
