Focus: Resolving the Anxiety Cycle

When our nervous systems are activated by sensing some kind of threat, our energy moves out of the center of the body outward, so we can move and act quickly. Often we are guided to calm ourselves with breath or stillness- but this can actually exacerbate anxiety when done too quickly. Instead, if we honor the energy with movement, gradually come into rhythm with our breath, and gradually come to rest, we complete and resolve the cycle, coming back to ourselves.
