Anxiety: “I don’t know who I am & and I don’t know what I’m doing. I react to what I think everyone else wants me to do.”
Remedy: Choose and live the way you want the world to be.
Courage and Strength is what is needed in this time to establish new plans of action. Stomach, Small Intestine, and Kidneys are the physical forces that hold to the plan and enforce the action.
If one has the courage but no idea of what to do perhaps you need to take a look at “What are your Goals?” Courage and Strength need to know what the plan is so when decisions and rules are set they no how to enforce the plan.
Look at your life…what do people like about you and what is that Passion that you have always wanted to do…Perhaps it is time.

Massage Therapy
Therapeutic massage is a pleasurable and effective way to reduce anxiety in any difficult situation. Well known for its benefits of relaxation, massage also helps to increase circulation, boosts the immune system and assists in cultivating body awareness and balance. Since you are seemingly entering into a high-stress time of your life, massage is a wonderful way to combat the negative effects of stress and maintain health and wellness during these changes. Other preventative self-care activities include sitting and simply breathing consciously for 10 minutes a day, walking for 30 minutes a day and/or reading or participating in any stress-reducing and enjoyable activity.

Aromatherapy
Anxiety has a negative and a positive effect on the body. For one, anxiety can help you become more creative and energized, but as a consequence, anxiety can tax the body and leave you with less energy in your day. Aromatherapy is extremely effective for anxiety because you will feel less stressed out, yet still excited and creative about your future and tackling what lies ahead! Essential oils that helps reduce anxiety and keep your excitement level high are essential oils for Central Nervous System (CNS) Balancing and Confidence-Boosting: Cypress, Geranium, Marjoram and Peppermint.
Blend the following mixture in a convenient bottle that you can take with you in your car or purse and apply to the place on your body where you feel the anxiety - such as your chest, abdomen, lower back, etc.
5 Cypress
3 Geranium
3 Marjoram
1 Peppermint
Fill rest of bottle with olive oil or sunflower oil - whichever is handy. Swirl around until oils combine (synergize). Use on skin anytime you feel anxious to balance you out and help you remain calm.

If you figure out how to do this, please let me know. Honestly, as a business owner myself, I really don’t think that there is a way to reduce anxiety when it comes to business ownership. However, here are a few suggestions that worked for me:
1. Stress and anxiety come from three different sources- physical, chemical and emotional- one should look at all sources of stress and do ones best to reduce as many sources as possible by making great lifestyle choices. Your health comes first! Without your health it will be very difficult to keep your energy where your business needs it to be.
2. Prepare yourself by having clearly defined goals. Visualize success and prosperity and remember, as Winston Churchill stated “Success is the ability to go from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.”
3. Enjoy the ride. There will be ups and downs because that is the nature of life; however, understand that business ownership is a ride, not a destination!
4. Hire a coach. Coaches inspire you with support, advice and accountability. Tiger Woods, perhaps a bad example right now, has 7 coaches. Maybe he needed 8 J.

Craniosacral Therapy
Take one step at a time. Anxiety catches us when we let our minds go spinning off into the future and we lose sight of what is happening right here and right now. With a huge transition like that one you're going through, it's tempting to do, so start off by finding ways to stay present and focused.
What can you do to keep your focus as you plan your next step? Breathe. Stay clear. Meditate on what you want. I sometimes refer to craniosacral therapy as the “lazy man's meditation” because it launches you into an extremely relaxed state without having to work too hard at it. It transports you into a twilight state, between sleep and wakefulness, that allows ideas to be born and worries to subside. It is from this state of mind that you'll be able to keep your calm, be inspired, and think clearly about how to proceed as your build your future while keeping your feet planted firmly in the present.
