What is anxiety and worry?

 

 

 

 

WORRY

 

Worry is a mental pattern where we think negative and unhopeful thoughts, usually about the future. It is a strong habit of thinking which becomes quite engrained. The roots of worrying usually lie in the past, and as we grow older the habit becomes such a part of us that we are often unaware of it. It is an extremely detrimental emotion as it robs us of energy and literally ties the digestive system up in knots.

 

ANXIETY

 

Anxiety is an overwhelm and overload of a number of emotions. In Mickel Therapy we say it is one too many emotions in the pot of emotions. If our body has reached a state of anxiety, it signifies that we are not aware of the emotional overload and doing what our body intelligence is asking us to do. Anxiety will have a detrimental effect on the body by creating tension throughout, and affecting the physiological functioning of the organs.

 

 

Anxiety Worry Reduction Programs

 

 

 

 

We offer a number of different length programs, ranging from 6 weeks (6 sessions) to 6 months (15 sessions). Each person will progress at the pace that is perfect for them, and one can always start with a shorter program and extend if necessary.

 

Kim works with clients at the clinic, by phone or at your place of work (for corporate wellness programs). Phone sessions are equally effective and Kim has worked successfully with clients from around the world - distance is no object to healing!

 

 

Core principles of health

 

 

 

 

There are certain core health principles health which form the foundation of the Art of Health programs including:

 

• Our body's natural state is health and happiness, and illness is the absence of our natural state
• Symptoms are the body's way of communicating it is not happy about something either going on in our life right now or lying unresolved from the past
• Our body is designed to self-heal if we look after ourselves properly, and understand and live in accordance with the 'laws of life' and 'laws of health'
• Good health will result if we understand these laws and learn to take care of our own health

 

 

About the programs

 

 

 

 

During the program we will cover a certain number of modules and topics. The longer the program, the more topics and more chance you will have to practice the techniques you will be given.

Message from Kim

 

 

 

 

"I was a stress bunny for most of my life. The funny thing was, I had no idea.

 

And then one day, I suddenly recognized it. I saw how unbelievably stressed I was, and how uncomfortable it actually felt being stressed. And I knew that if I didn't do something about it very soon, I was going to get seriously ill.

 

So, I set about de-stressing, which really was a process of going through a de-addiction to stress. Yes, stress is an addictive behaviour, just like drugs or chocolate! It took 4 years to complete.

 

Hopefully I can help you de-stress quicker, but for sure I know all about stress, its detremental effects and the absolute necessity of de-stressing and pleasure of living a calm, relaxed life".
