In the old days (that is what I call my post doctoral training at the Behavior Therapy Unit at Temple Medical School in the 1970's) we used systematic desensitization. We taught people to relax their body and then had them imagine the things they were afraid of in small steps until they were no longer afraid.

Flooding was another technique we used where we would expose people to the anxiety stimuli they were afraid of all at once until their anxiety diminished.

Both approaches are effective in helping you unlearn maladaptive anxiety responses to situations. However, they only help in dealing with the surface phobias, stress anxiety and fears that are already in your conscious mind. These techniques do not deal with the source, the root cause of your anxiety in the first place.

I want to get to the bottom line for more permanent and long lasting results. Why not work at the source, the root of what is causing your out of control mental anxiety disorder state in the first place?

When you are in the middle of a panic attack or anxiety attack you are hyperventilating. At the Behavior Therapy Unit, we were trained to say, "Shut your mouth and breathe through your nose."

This immediately helps because when you are hyperventilating you have too much oxygen, not too little. During a panic attack, shutting your mouth helps balance your oxygen intake and calm your autonomic nervous system down. This first step is easy to implement.

Try this natural treatment for an anxiety attack right this minute. It will help you can slow down and calm down so you can absorb the rest of this anxiety natural help article. Your anxious breathing will stop as soon as you shut your mouth and breathe though your nose.

People in touch with anxiety disorder symptoms and fear have a chance to get help in overcoming their anxiety. Success can be achieved by looking at the source and finding natural treatments.

Sensitive people are usually the ones who experience anxiety symptoms the most. Adults and children need anxiety help, treatment and natural therapy instead of drugs and psychotherapy.

To succeed with your anxiety natural self help program you need to learn about the huge difference between anxiety and real fear. Knowing the difference between a real fear and what is an irrational, out of control obsessive thought pattern is essential to your success. To learn more read or listen to, "Opening the Heart" which teaches you the important difference in these two energies.

Anxiety panic in humans is like lightning. In Nature lighting is immediately grounded. In humans, the panic, the anxiety which is the lighting ---is never grounded. This is the reason an anxiety disorder is such a serious problem.

In humans, the anxiety panic energy flies all over the place scaring you and everyone else to death. If lightning in nature really did fly all over the place, the real world would be chaotic and it would be very, very scary.

But lightning does not fly all over the place. It is immediately grounded. The real world is not chaotic, out of control or scary. So there is a serious problem with humans when we disconnect from the laws of Nature.

The mind body conclusion seems obvious, your human energy must be literally plugged into the ground with gravity in order for you to feel safe. To learn how to do this join one of Dr. Jeanette's anxiety classes or take her affordable, anxiety e course online.

You need to feel your physical body, especially your feet, so there is a direct connection between you and Mother Earth. It is simple, when you are not connected to gravity, you are going to experience panic and anxiety.

After you have learned to recognize your panic, sit down and breathe through your nose. Next you want to feel the real fear that is underneath the panic.
