INTRODUCTION
There are three main relationships in life:
- A Relationship to ourselves
- A Relationship to family-spouse and children, as well as friends
- A Relationship to career/business and finances
Anxiety can apply and affect all three areas of our lives:
Relationship with ourselves
- Anxious about being liked or doing well in social situations-We judge ourselves and get upset with ourselves;
- Worry about our personal success ----why am I not happier---I am worried that my life is not as good as it could be.
- Worries about my Health.
- Fear of Death
- Relationship with family
- Love-----Does he love me?
- Dating-will he call me again?
- Marriage---- Does she respect me?
- Is he or she cheating on me?
Business/Finances:
- Anxious about finding or keeping a job
- Worried about getting a promotion
- Surviving the recession
Famous writers have described anxiety:
- It felt as if a serpent had begun to coil round his limbs —George Eliot
- It felt as if her nerves were being stretched more tightly, like strings on violin pegs —
- Leo Tolstoy
- I felt like a switchboard with all my nerves on emergency alert —Dorothy B. Francis
- I had a chill and heavy feeling in my stomach like a lump of lead —Vicki Baum
THE SOLUTION
The core issue in all three relationship areas remains the same: how to contain our worry, stress, nervousness and feeling of uneasiness. The solution is to learn a 7 step process. There is a thought pattern underlying the stress and we need to uncover it and discover since it lives and resides in our subconscious mind---we must bring it up and deal with it in the here and now.
