Pixelated Media thanks! Glad I could help

[@HEROHCR2YT]

Thanks again!!!!

[@mixi2090]

I am soiling myself daily so I feel pretty grounded lately.

[@dylanpringle4314]

Thank you very much for free help, not a lot of people can afford counselors and this little snippet does help

[@Korymis]

We all know why we're here. (Everyone commenting on this I wish you all the best and even though it's hard, there will always be somebody going through the same thing... You are not alone.)

[@mrzeg-rr3se]

Weed cure my urge btw smoke a doobie

[@MarcKlark]

Exactly

[@seb1520]

I’m sorry you felt the same way.

[@EL-MUTAZ]

⁠@@seb1520 I can’t stop thinking of it.

[@Korymis]

​@@EL-MUTAZTrust me, it will be ok, I wish you the best in life and to succeed. If it helps maybe make a bucket list of things you want to achieve in your life :)

[@briannaw406]

You are my little island of safety tonight. I’ve been struggling with a particularly intense anxiety freeze for over a week and I can’t tell you how comforting your videos were for me. Thank you thank you thank you for making these ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@6monikajain]

Hi mam plz could ubpls help me out in the course of change your brain through neuroplasticity, I could take it as free course. So could u provide me the coupon code???

[@poojakapoor780]

I did this exercise and then I yawned..this means this exercise hit the spot. Love you Emma for helping us.

[@swathi5773]

1. Take deep breath and breath out. 2. Touch, see, hear 3 things in environment and describe them in mind. 3. Notice how body feels.

[@kdpowers]

Thanks, reading this is easier than watching the video and waiting

[@CelestialTrailblazer]

The number 1 is the one that I physically can't do. I simply can't take a deep breath. The lungs can't fully expand. I think cov!d damaged both the autonomic nervous/muscle systems. Apparently, everyone with Long Cov!d or post cov!d syndrome experiences not just shortness of breath due to what could be respiration/ diaphragm muscle freeze/malfunction along with abnormal high pulse rate upon slight exertion but also malfunction with the LES (Lower Esophageal Sphincter Muscles) and swallowing muscles.

[@Psych2go]

This was really helpful! Thank you!

[@rosehdez2332]

Agreed. I love your videos Psych2Go, and I'm surprised to be the first comment. the Therapy in a Nutshell and your videos are really helping me right now

[@kurt-kobain-vs7]

omg psych2go!!

[@iwal1645]

I just started this grounding thing a few days ago. It's helped me with PTSD. Thanks so very much.

[@TherapyinaNutshell]

Awesome! That's my goal!

[@letscookfun5496]

I will try it

[@cield3987]

I just started this this week. I find its important to do it the very 1st thing, before other things cloud my emotions. This helps me throughout my day, even!

[@amyhoop9651]

I just performed these exercises and my anxiety immediately lowered and I felt more balanced as I was standing and began walking. Thank you so much for all that you do for us listeners! God Bless You!

[@yema4484]

I was on the brink of an anxiety attack and this video really helped me calm down and to ground my emotions and body. Thank you SO much for this video!!!!! Sending love to everyone!❤️

[@christinehart8018]

Thanks!

[@ruwsh3062]

I love watching these types of videos in the middle of a panic attack.

[@captaincrundle5691]

Wow, thank you! I woke up with the daily anxiety I feel before work and came across your video in desperation. I watched the previous videos in this series, then did the exercise as you walked through it an immediately all my queasiness disappeared!!! The feeling of relief was so strong that I burst into tears! Thank you. Thank you so much for providing this resource. This is a huge turning point for me.

[@claireskochinski880]

[@Periscope99985]

Julia even your videos are great 👍

[@cananary]

this really did help especially if ur experiencing depersonalization/derealization or on the verge of panicking

[@abigailmendoza2502]

that experience is so scary!

[@XpapricaX]

Best part was the hearing my mother sister and neice were singing focusing on that was awesome thank you,

[@miggseye]

Thank you. This helped me today. Been feeling anxious and somewhat paralyzed. This helps. Glad a found this.

[@JellyjamLu]

This exercise is incredible, I did this only once & just for that brief moment I felt I claimed back my old self, I’m usually always on edge, ringing ears, sweating, muscle tension. But it felt like I escaped some of that temporarily. This I must practice regularly. Thankyou

[@floyd4335]

I tried this. It worked. I'm speechless. Thank you.

[@froglobster]

Wow I’m doing this and pausing-grounding-couch carpet tv remote- visual- candleholders speaker flowers in vase-sound fridge humm range- air conditioning- love this feeling! I am mellow right now -what just happened to my overactive spazzing cortex? Gotta love this girl!

[@zzzcocopepe]

Asmr grounds me. It gives you goose bumps and you feel your muscles lightly throughout your body

[@lasquirella]

Thank you from all my heart that you share your knowledge. I like your movies and your calming voice. This tool is really helpful and I like its simplicity.

[@MariA-vt2bf]

So glad I found this, sometimes it can be hard to remember doing this when I’m experiencing a trigger. Your voice and presence have a very calming effect too. Thank you for making this video!

[@DJSanOneTV]

not only is she smart but also so beautiful . and to makes things even better your voice is so calming . thank you !

[@MsInteresting]

Thank you for these videos (anxiety sufferer). I can see they will be quite helpful in the long run with daily practice. God bless.

[@chyannefogle7328]

I do 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 method all the time this was similar but at the same time different I like this one better. It helped everything immediately. Thank you

[@naomiigrayyy]

I found you today and wow, I noticed I felt more relaxed and I didn’t know why and then you explained and it makes perfect sense and it’s so easy!! Thank you

[@sk_s_w]

I truly needed this course and I didn't know! Starting from senses?! It's so smart! I'm amazed! Thank you so so much! ❤

[@reebee474]

So grateful to u for this calming walkthrough💜

[@MyriamBergmann]

I've been having a constant panic attack for two weeks now, I haven't really slept in that time as well. My tummy is not wanting me to put food in it. I threw up twice when I tried eating proper meals, so I kind of just eat little chunks when I can bare to get something down. My skin is burning and I have developped a harsh rash on my face, neck and bag from all the stress. It's itching. But for those couple of minutes I actually felt safe. So thank you sooooo muuuuch.

[@Nat_443]

🙏 you radiate a very calming un threatening nature. Thanks for the tips !

[@mathieunorry]

I could listen to your calming voice all day

[@TherapyinaNutshell]

Thanks! it's funny but when I started making videos I was most insecure about my voice, I always thought I had a strange voice, but a lot of people have commented that my voice is calming, so that's changed my perspective, thanks!

[@pandalover1238]

this really helped me a lot...i went from being pissed off to crying to a calmness enveloping my body...

[@guywebster8018]

Sometimes I watch this video then I write whats on my mind. Then I erase those words. Makes me feel better. Seriously. My life isnt typical at all. Not even sure any human can relate honestly but we all have our way. That helps me. Thank you therapy in a nutshell. You help more then you know.. I know.. I need help probably.

[@ronwhitehouse23]

What excellent advice and not overly complicated by jargon.

[@ms.amazed]

I ended up finding you. Today!thank gawd because I have gained so much from grounding and your video. Your my angel. Thank you very very very much tears of happiness I can't believe it took me this long. so simple and so effective thank you

[@MandiDeadLee]

I just quickly googled a grounding exercise on the verge of a panic attack. This was very helpful in this moment, thank you x

[@SudinVisualstories]

You deserve to be viewed by many. Simple and practical methods. Thank you

[@TherapyinaNutshell]

thank you :)

[@ChoicelessHeretic]

This helped a lot. I feel so much better that I feel like I want to cry but I need to go to bed. Thank you❤

[@Narlee2226]

I suffer CPTSD and using Grounding has helped me beyond words ... it takes time bravery and practice but it workd ‼️

[@QuizzWhizz101]

U dont know how much this helped me. Today i had a coyote of paranoid thoughts and that made anxious because straight away i thought that i was going crazy. But actually I was to deep in my thoughts so I believed in all the negative thoughts that came in, but I just realised that it’s just anxiety and that I need to present

[@BafanaNkentshane]

May God bless you. I wish i knew this long time ago. Very helpful. Thank you 🥰

[@ProjectReaperGaming]

I just want to say thank you. It really helps me understand myself better. Your PTSD aid is helping me figure out who I am

[@Meenadevidasi]

Simple but effective. Excellent. Thank you.

[@CollectorOfStars-lu7zf]

Daily reminder: Your skin is not paper, so don’t cut it Your neck is not a coat, so don’t hang it Your body is not a book, so don’t judge it Your heart is not a door, so don’t lock it Your life is not a movie, so don’t end it Always remember to love yourself even at hard times❤

[@ljgarrett5998]

I have watched a lot of your videos and each one helps me more and more! Thank you

[@TherapyToThePoint]

It's an amazing channel!

[@ella.q366]

i love you for this great reminder thanks a lot. Once my mother triggers me I lose focus and get out of touch. My actions get irrational ..this is really really helpful. Wow. Thanks again.

[@barriemacfarlane]

Emma,you are a gem !

[@hojasdealisio]

Thanks very much. I am going to do it again and again.

[@RedaEttabii]

Wow this exercice have tremendously help with one try. I appréciate your work

[@DrPatrickKingsep]

Hi, Patrick from Mind Life Flow here...thankyou for this useful video content on grounding during anxiety!

[@parveezsaligh9248]

pretty sweet, worked like a charm. Thank you. Also is there a PDF, GUIDE, BOOK LET etc, with these information? i'd love to get my hands on it. Thank you and appreciate it.

[@hefsak]

I just want to cry and give up thankyou for this

[@hughtempleton8640]

Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing ❤️ .

[@bonniesmallidge8944]

Thank you so very much for this video, I was having some anxiety and panic this evening and this made me feel much better. I am so grateful for you❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@rasoulsharif]

Every time you say, i hope it was helpful, at the end of your videos, i tell myself "it was helpful". Thank you!!!

[@embodiedauthenticity]

Thank you, I like the simple way you described how to get present to the moment. I feel getting into your body, feeling the body and grounding yourself in the body is really essential there, so we don't just get lost in our head thinking about what our senses gives us in terms of inputs, but also kind of "experience" them in our bodies.

[@choosetolivefree]

Ill give it a try during moments of anxiety

[@ShanB333]

This helped me. I pretty much instantly calmed down. I love how you help educate people. Thank you!

[@juliannemarie657]

thank you so much for all of your work!

[@user-qc1mc2ly8j]

Gonna use this for my next meltdown/panic attack. Thank you!

[@rosehill37]

Quick and easy. Very effective.

[@sahincelik7610]

This is a thousand times more effective than breathing exercises. Perfect

[@staceywashere9]

Thank you Emma. I needed this badly.

[@lauramurinova6770]

Wow, this really helped me! Thank you for the video.

[@Imad06]

Thank you , this really helpful.

[@gennessyma239]

The video really helps me no matter where I’m at

[@Jojo-v6x]

Grounding Exercise: 0. Take deep breath in and breathe out 1. Touch 3 things and describe them 2. See 3 things and describe them 3. Hear 3 things and describe them Afterwards: Notice how your body feels

[@gandharvgedam3218]

Helpful as usual.

[@tany897]

You're so great. Thank you for sharing all of these helpful tips!

[@eagyinjection]

thank you so much for the grounding exercises. you dont know how much this means to someone with chronic anxiety- which keeps triggering off throat constricting, tongue retracting, involuntary breath holding

[@boo_]

I've noticed some people do all of that compulsively, this explains a lot. Thanks

[@lynnr4288]

Thank you. Your approach and professionalism are reassuring and helpful. Do you have another video without the white pause. That slide is jolting! Any chance you have another one or could make one? Love your work.

[@UnidosdoCeu]

Thank you so much for this video 🙏🏽

[@realgena1]

Great exercise. Thank you.

[@knowledgeckr786]

Thanks Dr viking is fully happy

[@SleepyZBear]

Thank you, Was on the verge earlier I feel better now ❤

[@charlesgarrett7766]

Thanks for talking me down before i did something

[@mixi2090]

I am soiling myself daily so I feel pretty grounded lately.

[@Itsfreakincold11]

I'm making a poster board with different kinds of grounding techniques it should help me remember to do them. Hope this helps

[@eamonkugenieks2540]

Yes I hsve been aware of the benefit of grounding but now I know the importance of regular Repeat during the day that's a major factor so will be trying that thanks so much ❤

[@Outdoorkings]

I wish more people viewed the word like you

[@amaaltoos4432]

This is great. Thank you so much.

[@thatguy1494]

qhat also helps me is if your negative thoughts start to creep up into your head, just imagine a stop sign blocking that thought. It has personally helped me as i am trying to control my anxiety.

[@guybenshmuel7151]

Thank you so much you helped me so much

[@anindyabiswas6789]

Thank you very much. This was oddly simple and effective.

[@neoshenlong]

Funnily enough, I actually recognized this exercise on my own on a day I was taking a walk to calm down (I like to do that a lot). As I was walking, I noticed that focusing on my environment and my sensations really calmed down. It was even natural to just feel the touch of my own hands and the wind and stuff like that. I've been trying this for a while and it works most of the time. Kinda reassuring to hear your other video where you mention these become more and more effective as you do them.

[@secret-third-option]

I always have a resting heart around 100bpm. I figured it was anxiety. But it went down to 80 bpm the first time I did this. It's still high for body at rest but I'll keep doing it daily. I was first scared if I had a bigger health condition.

[@lissliss3925]

Thankyou this helped me today a lot
