Meditation for Anxiety & Nervous Energy (15-Min)

[@holliecarmen]

That was absolutely incredible. I felt extreme nervous energy and found this and feel so so calm now ❤ thankyoi!!!

[@tacybess3899]

have added this meditation to my morning routine. found it’s really great way to ground yourself and start your energy right at the start of the day

[@asthtk4098]

Did this before going on a coffee date. It's my first 1on1 date in like 4 years. I was nervous, but I'm feeling a lot more calm and capable after this meditation, thanks yo.

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

So glad it helped, thank you for meditating with me!!

[@jillianmcguire8056]

I literally can’t thank you enough for this - I actually started out so frazzled but ended quite relaxed

[@laraperhat20]

you feeling lighter after this meditation :) going to use this breathing technique also at work while nervous ;) tnxs

[@casandracardoso6358]

I suffer from Panic attacks and Anxiety and I literally did this meditation this morning and I feel less racing anxious thoughts and more lighter, but I noticed it was hard to keep my arms together and my breathing started from 5 counts to 4, but it worked out well!

[@toootybooty08]

I usually have a hard to getting centered to begin my meditation but after the breathing exercises I felt like I could meditate for hours. That was great, thanks!

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

+Trudy yay! good work! you're so welcome :)

[@toootybooty08]

+BrettLarkinYoga It's very similar if not identical to a class I took a couple months ago, I believe it was called kundalini yoga...although at the time I hadn't been aware that you can choose how many seconds you inhale, exhale, and hold for. Doing that made the experience much more comfortable.

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

+Trudy Hehe yes. This is a Kundalini meditation -- you are spot on girl!!! :)

[@papiatalk9356]

Ditto!

[@Stephers22]

Perfect for me with final exams coming up! Thanks!! :)

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

+sarah reville haha, yesssss. I love this meditation!

[@gabyc0826]

doing this before my riding. i lovelovelove horses but it can be scary when you get into the saddle, especially on a massive horse like bella

[@samanthaclaire888]

Lovely meditation, I don't feel much different. I've been experiencing very high levels of fear/anxiety lately, I feel like my nerves are frazzled, I have this sensation in my arms....like a tingling burning feeling ....it's a bit unpleasant. Do you know what this might be causing this symptom? (Just to be clear I had it before I did the meditation) Sending love and thank you x

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Maybe see your doctor to make sure that you are not experiencing a pinched never or something. Hope you feel better soon 💖

[@LeanneWhittington]

Hi I enjoyed this meditation, can I also ask what you mean by can be triggering ? I was to release nervous energy from my body in relation to panic

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Triggering- causing you to feel a type of emotion, have an adverse reaction to it. Hope that helps!!

[@LucilleInTheSky1]

Hello Brett! I hope you can help me here.. You said that when we inhale and hold the breath we should activate the mula bandha and then while we exhale we still keep the mula bandha activated and then when we exhale out completely we pull the belly to our spine. Does that mean that we keep the mula bandha activated throughout the entire meditation? Should we ever release it? If we should keep it activated at all times is it because this meditation specifically asks us to do it or should we generally keep it activated when we do the breath work? I googled it and there are so many different and opposing things written about it so I am kinda confused. I am interested in your take on it. Thank you!

[@selinaprager5932]

great!

[@samanthawells1735]

I was feeling nervous this morning before an online classroom based course I am attending. I thought, I wonder if Brett will have some yoga or a mediation for me...and of course you did! I feel much more settled thanks and ready to do something new! Can I just ask, as you breath out do you relax the pelvic floor area again and then relift on the in breath or do you keep the pelvic floor lifted throughout the mediation?

[@aizmo]

Are the hands placed on the chest or hovering in front, during the meditation? Thank you!! ♥️

[@grarthee]

'Pulling the navel' step is after exhaling right? Before pulling navel, I feel like taking short breath? Is it ok to take a short breath before the 5 count breath?

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

ideally The breath goes like this: 1) inhale for 5 2) engage mulah bandha hold for 5 3) maintain mulah bandha exhale for 5 4) navel up and in (uddiyana bandha) hold for 5 Release bandhas and repeat.If the 5 count is too much, try doing a three count and gradually work your way up to 5 or more. Just find what is a comfortable count for you and make each segment the same length. I hope this helps answer your question! Thank you for practicing with me!!

[@amy3725]

Love this! Is this safe to do during pregnancy?

[@AssapimasterShinikoza]

Amy Pennington ye

[@andreathomas7208]

you should not hold the breath when you are pregnant @@AssapimasterShinikoza

[@AssapimasterShinikoza]

@@andreathomas7208 I mean not for a long ass time but for a second or 2 it's not Bad

[@emilyhill7622]

Found myself getting lightheaded. Is this normal?

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Yes, others have experienced things like this. Make sure you reground after the meditation too💖

[@andreathomas7208]

It is really important to do the tune in chant before and after to help with grounding. Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo first and Sat Nam after @@BrettLarkinYoga

[@lenaeb2129]

Please shorten the time when you explain everything, otherwise I really linked it!

[@lynn2475]

+Lena Eb I really appreciate her lengthy explanation. I am 56 and have never done yoga. Her lesson eliminated much of the unease about understanding fully so as not to injure myself or keep up, and how Im suppose to breath. I think we just made a human yin yang. :^)

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

+Carol Hall Hi guys!!! I tried to do the best of both worlds and added a button to easily skip the explanation in the annotation and description :) Because this is a Kundalini meditation, and these can be powerful and triggering for some people, I wanted to really explain how it worked :)

[@lenaeb2129]

+BrettLarkinYoga Thanks for answering, I really like your solution ;-)

[@lynn2475]

BrettLarkinYoga Thank you for taking the time to answer. Bless you!

[@sharedremedy]

You talk so much and give me more anxiety

[@eyesthrurosecoloredglasses]

This was very rude of you honey. She's trying to give proper instruction, or were you looking for pantomime?
