Raw: Anxiety Attack to Calm

Raw: Anxiety Attack to Calm

In this spontaneous JSJ guided meditation, I practice 3 self-help holds to assist me out of an anxiety attack. When pregnant, anxiety and anxiety attacks can feel debilitating; whether it's from increased fatigue, exhaustion, changing hormones, environment, etc, sometimes it feels like just all too much to handle. 

Although infrequent, I still have an occasional anxiety attack, and most of the time, I am able to process and shift out of it easily even though it's not fun. These three holds was just spontaneous decision. There are many holds to help yourself during anxiety/panic attacks. The holds we practice today help us to ground, allows for adaptation, encourages movement, and centers our soul, and stills our minds and bodies.

Today, I start with finding a safe place, then accepting the feelings, then shifting thoughts, then realigning with thoughts more beneficial and positive. Watch a transformation from an anxiety attack to calm and ready for the next step in my day. 

I didn't purposely leave baby out of this episode (usually I reference or talk about growing baby during the episodes), however, I would have added near the end of the meditation something like this message to baby: "I love you so much baby. This anxiety attack that you may have felt has nothing to do with you. Even if you think it is, even if I think it is, truly, it's not. These are my feelings and my emotions, and you, my sweet baby, don't need to worry about it or take these emotions on in any way."

I considered not publishing this episode. Mostly because I wasn't sure about being so vulnerable. But, I'm here to be real after all, so publishing this episode made sense even if it just helps one person!  I edited this episode heavily, and I would love all feedback, as it helps guide me to build and create episode by episode.

Being pregnant is hard! I'm so glad I have JSJ, meditation, and a whole bag of other tools to help me along the way. What an insane journey this is: the journey into motherhood. There are no words to describe the intense emotions I have felt and continue to feel during this time. I don't know how I might be acting and what would fill my thoughts during this transition time if I hadn't begun my healing journey long ago.

Support Reproductive System & Transform Into Motherhood

Support Reproductive System & Transform Into Motherhood

Practicing this simple JSJ self-care hold can be very beneficial during pregnancy. In this episode, I teach pregnant women a simple hand placement they can do to help revitalize and support their reproductive system.  We set a focus and intention on exploring transformation into motherhood and releasing resistance to this transformation into motherhood. Relax, and let go of stress and tension in this guided meditation created for pregnant women around the world. 

It's amazing to me how we can revitalize all the functions that take place within our reproductive system with a simple placement of our hands. And within this transformation into motherhood meditation, we disentangle from feelings of resistance physically, mentally, and emotionally. We realign with feelings of strength, courage, confidence, creativity, intuitiveness, fluidity, flexibility, ease, and grace.

Use this guided meditation anytime during motherhood to help you feel more balanced, calm, and stress-free.

Earlier this week, coming to this particular JSJ self-care hold because I found myself transforming into a different stage in motherhood. Now I have a 3-year-old and 10 month old; things are changing, within all 3 of us, and within the rest of the family that’s involved with us too. There’s transformation happening all around me during this time of motherhood.

So when I can take time to practice holding my safety energy lock 17 as well as my ring finger, I can find peace, I can find so much peace. And I might even hold these spots standing in line at the grocery store or when I’m sitting in line anywhere with a free hand. And coming right to that wrist hold, it calms my entire nervous system. That's one of the other benefits of this hold. To calm your nervous system.

Melt Into Peace - Let Go of Trying Too Hard

Melt Into Peace - Let Go of Trying Too Hard

In today’s meditation, we practice a very simple JSJ self-care hold to release all the  "trying to" and "efforting" of the day. Maybe we're trying too hard to please other people or accomplish goals and to-dos. In this meditation, we simply let go of the mental chatter and feel enjoyment in the stillness and find peace in the present moment.  This particular attitude (or emotion) of "trying to" and "efforting" is overlooked in today's busy societies, because it is encouraged. But as my mentor reminds me, we are human beings, not human doings. We must take time to just simply be (watch the clouds roll by if you will).  During pregnancy, we can experience excess mental stress and/or physical stress, and in my opinion, it's because we are just doing too much. Pregnancy is a time to tune inward and give our bodies and babies what they are needing day by day. But in most societies, we run on clock rhythms rather than body awareness and need-based rhythms.  This meditation helps us connect with ourselves and the growing baby inside. Enjoy today's episode and easily let go of mental stress and physical tension.

Find Joy During Pregnancy

Find Joy During Pregnancy

Pregnancy hormones got you feeling down? Bored? Disconnected? Depressed? Lonely? I like to call all these feelings simply feeling "stuck". I define my emotions so much differently than I used to, but I think depressed, bored, and down would be words I would have described this feeling in the past. In today's pregnancy JSJ guided meditation, I use the self-care JSJ hold for the 10 flow which helps bring movement into the body as well as help us feel a sense of abundance within. This flow helps us breathe easier and feel a sense of joy, peace, and connection within ourselves and our lives surrounding us. I start the episode by helping you figure out where to place your hands, guide you in white light, warming visualization to help calm your nervous system, and then move into emotional freedom techniques to help you shift these stuck emotions into more positive and helpful ones. I end with practicing connecting to our growing baby and sending them positive feelings, thoughts, and love. I love this particular self-care hold because it's easy to practice almost anywhere if you have free hands--like when watching a movie, riding in a car, etc... Shift your depressing and "stuck" feelings into feelings of joy and connection.  If you enjoy this show, please consider one of the following ways to support me and sustain future episodes: JSJ Combination Meditations Packages ⁠⁠NOW AVAILABLE⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
