What happens when the world at large is in a state of hyper-vigilance or “fight or flight”…locked in a stress response due to fear-provoking signals received from authorities, social media and media in general?
A chronic state of fear, reduced cognitive function/attention span, plus sleep deprivation puts us in a vulnerable state to be manipulated and mind-controlled in such a way that we willingly give away our freedoms and our ability to make decisions.
Many have been duped into thinking we need an external source of control in order to feel safe.
“Mass formation psychosis” is a psychological term that is currently being discussed as a probable reason we are seeing so many humans engaging in irrational behaviors that put themselves and others at risk…further adding to collective fear and distrust of one another.
Cognitive degradation is being observed in all age groups due to poor nutrition, poor sleep and environmental pollution, and is further compounded by addiction to electronics, gadgets and outsourcing of our human responsibilities.
We wonder why most of us are tethered to our phones like emotional hostages afraid to miss out on the latest emergency.
The good news is that there is a method to the madness and there is an end-game to it!
It’s more important than ever to raise consciousness on this matter and individually and collectively make different decisions in order to tip the scales in favor of human stability and sustainability.
What can we do as individuals?
First off, we must regain control of our own emotions and learn to self-regulate, so that we don’t need authorities to regulate us.
This may involve temporary or permanent abstinence from social media or news, avoiding certain individuals who tend to trigger a fear response and deliberately designing a life that supports your personal sense of safety.
Below, I will discuss one simple way to reduce anxiety, no matter where or why it occurs, so that we can start to think more clearly and make well-informed decisions.
This strategy can help us to respond, rather than react, to triggers, emotional charges or perceived threats.
Self-regulation could very well be the major difference between someone who is able to access logic and intuition and someone who’s free-will is being hijacked by others.
Like the difference between most cats and dogs 😂
Anxiety is directly connected to pelvic floor tightness and a tucked tailbone. If you are currently having a panic attack or feel frazzled, learning how to release this area can be life changing!
As an occupational therapist for the past 22 years, I have used the following technique (in addition to therapeutic touch and meridian tapping) to guide my patients to a calm state in order to prepare their bodies for healing after traumatic illness or injuries.
You can do this exercise anywhere, anytime you feel stressed or feel your pelvic floor tighten up…and it is especially helpful to perform prior to making potentially life-changing decisions.
- Relax your gaze and turn your attention to your pelvic floor.
- Breathe in through your nose and at the end of your inhale hold and gently bear down like you are having a bowel movement for 5-10 seconds.
- Release the air slowly and feel your pelvic muscles slowly rebounding back upward in a controlled fashion.
- Do this as many times needed to feel calm throughout the day.
- Follow it with several gentle slow breaths and pair with your favorite soothing mantra if needed.
Doing this regularly will literally retrain your nervous system to favor parasympathetic mode AKA “Rest and Restore mode”.
In the next article I will discuss in more depth what parasympathetic mode means and other ways to harness our natural relaxation response to become a more productive, compassionate, present and sovereign human being.
