CPR for the Amygdala Protocol for Dealing with Anxiety with Dr. Kate Truitt

Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety? In this guided meditation with Dr. Kate Truitt, we'll explore how to effectively manage anxiety using the CPR (Creating Personal Resilience) for the amygdala SNAP protocol, which is designed to address generalized anxiety.
Begin by incorporating self-soothing touch techniques, such as palm movements-like washing your hands under warm water-or placing fingertips on your shoulders, crossing your arms, and giving yourself a soothing hug. These movements help create a calming, resilient experience.
Following the SNAP protocol, start by sensing what’s happening within yourself, noticing your current state, and applying soothing techniques. Preoccupy your mind by focusing on controlled breathing: inhale to a count of 4, 3, 2, 1, and exhale to a count of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, or adjust as needed for comfort. Self-assess your mind and body energy on a scale from 0 to 10, and if it’s above a 2, continue using self-soothing touch and breathing techniques.
Additionally, identify objects of various colors and scents in your environment to further shift your focus and soothe your anxiety. By following these steps, you can help manage anxiety and create a more balanced emotional state.
