Welcome back inanga.

Patient.

It's good to be with you this week.

Last week we responded to a listener question about anxiety that feels like it comes out of the blue.

That question mentioned different scenarios that might suddenly bring up anxiety and the feeling that it can just blow up out of nowhere.

So this week we're sharing how to use the FT tapping for those times when anxiety

Suddenly peaks and feels like it might escalate into a full-blown anxiety attack

Yeah, the question we received covered different things that can suddenly bring anxiety up from climate to an elevated heart rate, different situations.

And I think we're all aware of those times when we have that with anxiety

where you can feel like, you know, I was okay, what just happened where something sets anxiety off

and we can feel very much held hostage to it and we can become very immediately stressed that it's going to escalate.

I know in my life when anxiety was running really high I've had those times where I've thought, oh no it it's going to go, you know, my mind's just going to blow this anxiety up.

Right, just being swept away.

Swept away and it's such a horrible feeling and as soon as we acknowledge the feeling of

course it escalates. So sometimes we have that feeling that anxiety starts

building and this is where tapping can really help us stop the anxiety building up and help ourselves not be swept away
