Cure Anxiety

Our innate desire is to be happy, and when going out, we feel fear.

This fear is actually millions of years, because it comes from the biological programming of our species.

Although we did not fight with a saber-toothed tiger on a given day, we still use those very reactions in response to threatening events to come.

We think, "I get kicked the same mistake at work?" or "Can I meet the mortgage after I fix the car?" or "My health continues to deteriorate?" or "My relationship breaks down after that argument we just fell?"

Problems with this type of racing emergency and impotence train our brains to prepare now for future danger by putting our bodies with the stress hormone cortisol.

Anxiety is our anticipation of a dangerous future. We imagine that much less than what little we have today.
This anxiety does not help address the future. In fact, it weakens and exhausts us. In general, more concerned with things that can not control. Worrying about your visit to the dentist, for example, make the visit more.

Anxiety, in fact, is a silent murderer. It's annoying, and the drains of purpose and hope, faith and initiative. It clouds the mind. And it makes the body vulnerable to disease.

When anxiety - the fear of an event in the future - is high enough so you feel a deep sense of helplessness. This in turn means a depression. You can not even begin to look at the disappointment of the past.
Caught between an unhappy past and a frightening future you create a model of emotions that can lead to a variety of emotional disorders, including manic depression.

How can we break this vicious circle?

Here's what I did 20 years ago and have never suffered from any serious mood disorder.

I began to cultivate my awareness of my mood swings - from joy to despair black.
I did this basically looks at me when I was manic, and watching myself when I was depressed, and I saw what I did over these States. For example, if you want to feel depressed, I used my love of literature to focus on a dark, morbid, and unhappy stories of life. And to get elated, I would like to talk a lot, move very quickly, and do things dramatically.

An interesting thing happened when I made my unconscious behavior conscious. I could not make serious changes in my mood.

That's what I learned from this experience: when you are able to observe in them a couple of weeks, you develop a strange distance.

A paradoxical situation developed for me: I found it difficult to stay anxious and depressed when I observe myself feeling anxious and depressed
Finally, the anxiety and depression are culturally-induced patterns of thinking that can be overcome through a deliberate cultivation of awareness. When you become your own observations, eliminating the unconscious habit afflicting it.

Despite the billions of dollars spent to treat anxiety and depression, and all the mood disorders and behavioral problems arising from their treatment is simple, fast and free.
