Make yourself a nice drink, get yourself comfortable, and write with me for a bit.
I honestly believe we're all anxious, to a point, it's just that some of us don't recognise that feeling as anxiety. Write about it. Even if you think - or know - you're not anxious, write about anxiety anyway. For example, 'The reason I'm anxious is because... well, I'm not anxious. But sometimes I feel a fluttering in my belly, and I guess that could be anxiety. I have a few friends who say they have anxiety. They say it feels like.... etc etc.'
Just roll with it.
Let the words jump out onto the page or screen.
Just write.
Try not to invite the editor to your practice. The editor will want you to spell everything correctly, have proper sentence structure, have neat handwriting, or even make sense!
Don't listen.
Just write.
On this channel we're dealing with PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION.
Sometimes doing writing exercises can bring up strong emotions and feelings. If this happens, then please be kind to yourself. Show yourself some compassion. Perhaps ring a friend and talk it out.
Remember: you woke up, showed up, and wrote the words.
You're doing better than you think.
Claim your practice in the comment section. It's a great way for me to see who I'm potentially writing with, and it'll really help this channel grow, and get more people writing.
I'll see you in the next video.
