'Instead of fighting against it, focusing on anxiety allows it to transform, fall away, and open up space for more.' SabrinaRomanoff explains how it works.
Learn to interrupt intrusive thoughts by widening the space between thoughts and your response to them . What you focus on will propagate. Googling, perseverating, talking with friends, and seeking reassurance only feeds the fear, allowing it to sprout.First, name the anxious thought. This allows for cognitive diffusion . Because observing requires a witness, a separation forms between the thought and yourself. With distance comes perspective to dismantle anxiety and reduce its credibility.
For example, you might feel insecure about your appearance, so you spend hours following a rigid exercise plan. Reacting to surface-level anxiety will keep you on a hamster wheel as the underlying feeling of deficiency won’t be resolved through external appearance—it can only be managed internally. The more you suppress, control, or manipulate external circumstances, the larger these feelings grow and the more energy they consume.
Sitting with an emotion does not require an action or immediate solution. Instead, create space for it, become willing to experience it, and eventually process and move past it. Anxiety takes up energy. That energy consumes space in your mind and body. Instead of fighting against it, focusing on anxiety allows it to transform, fall away, and open up space for more.Kelly, A. E., & Kahn, J. H. . Effects of suppression of personal intrusive thoughts.
