I recently talked myself out of a panic attack.Now listen, I have struggled with depression and anxiety for well over a decade, and until this moment, I really felt like I was never in control of these things. This time I thought,  you know what, I'm going to try something different.I was able to talk myself out of a panic attack instead of going down that spiral and getting stuck in that sticky situation—if you suffer from this, you know exactly what I'm talking about—and I was able to gain control back. In fact, I was able to take my Powerback®.So, on today's Powerback® episode, we're talking about how I got myself out of this freaking panic attack in a way that was very simple. It just required diligence, focus, and intention.Disclaimer: this is not medical advice, make sure that you're talking to your doctor and make sure that you are checking for underlying conditions that can cause anxiety. Additionally, this is my experience, so take it with a grain of salt.We’ll go through:Celebrating our wedding anniversary in styleMy mind hijacks the amazing moment, but I don’t let itInterrupting my thoughts and sensationsUsing grounding techniques, breathing, and somatic practicesChanging the focus and reframingResources from this episodeFoundations for Getting Out of Your Head - a FREE 5-day private podcast experience.
