Have you ever sat down to think about and define what it would sound, feel and look like when you’ve moved beyond your anxiety? Have you ever wondered if you are heading at least in the right direction?For many people, it is easier to search for evidence that anxiety still holds the reins in their lives than focus on the improvements they have made on their healing journey. Yet, to stay motivated and keep going, we need ‘sign posts’ along the way that tell us that we have gained traction and are moving forward.

Unfortunately, in many ways, I feel we have it backward when responding to our anxiety, myself included. During my twenties, I treated my anxiety by trying to numb it with medication, alcohol and staying busy. This gave me the ability to ignore how I was feeling but did not do anything to heal the root problem. Instead, the anxiety was only masked, boiling underneath the surface and getting worse. In this episode of Empowerment Solutions, I want to share with you the 3 top reasons why you don’t have to be afraid of your anxiety but instead can embrace it and use it as a jumping-off point to becoming your best self.

When was the last time your inner child was triggered? It's very likely that this is when you were dealing with anxiety. You see, the inner child is that early developmental aspect, who has to figure out how to get us through life without being harmed, abandoned, and hopefully with a little love and attention? It is in these early stages that our inner child creates the core beliefs we carry about ourselves, and how we see the world around us. This is also where our core limiting beliefs are also created. So what do we do with the inner child? And how can we help this part of our subconscious to let go and outgrow its old beliefs? Join me for this week’s episode about the inner child and find out how you can be the caring adult, this younger part of you needs to finally feel safe, loved, and that you belong. Dr Friedemann's Key Takeaways: Intro (00:00) Revert Back (1:55) Many Beliefs From Inner Child (4:11) Connect With The Inner Child (6:43) Step Into Their Shoes (10:09) Potential Threat (16:23) Step In

Do you feel anxious all the time? Do you react to anything unforeseen in an anxious, heightened state of being?   Does any change bring an enormous amount of stress and worry,  and even feeling just a little bit out of control, immediately have you spiralling into anger and frustration? There may be a lot of reasons why you feel those feelings, and why you're responding to your life like this…  But one component that a lot of people often overlook, is the component of being addicted to those feelings.  

ENCORE EPISODE | This episode was so well received that I have decided to share it again now. With so many valuable tips and tools it is worth a listen or a re-listen... Anxiety is a natural form of communication from our subconscious mind and serves an important function. Similar to physical pain, which calls our attention to an injury or other problems with our body. Often anxiety can be a symptom of deeper emotional and mental wounds - whether they are unresolved traumas, self-sabotaging patterns, or limiting beliefs. By identifying and addressing these deeper root causes, you will not only overcome your anxiety but also gain a greater sense of inner peace, wholeness and confidence. Join me on this latest episode of “Empowerment Solutions” where I answer your questions and share with you my tips and tools on how to turn anxiety into a catalyst of growth and personal empowerment. Dr. Friedemann’s Takeaways: Intro (00:00) Something Made You Feel Unsafe (6:09) When It Comes To Healing (12:26) Is There A Qui

Do you have a hard time finding the mental and emotional space to just enjoy the pleasures of life and have fun? Do you mostly push through your endless daily tasks, trying to ignore stress, anxiety, maybe even anger?  Many people feel that this is the most challenging period in their lifetime, which is why fun and pleasure are not at all on their radar. However, studies have shown that if we live this way long term, we are not only overall less productive, we are also shortening our life expectancy. There is a biological reason why we have countless neurons that are all designed for us to experience joy and pleasure. But how can we make use of them if we are always living in a state of struggle and never recharging our system with the things that make our minds and heart truly happy? Are we even allowed to have fun when the world seems to be falling apart? Well, this is what my next guest Dr. Michael Rucker has been writing about in his new book, “https://www.amazon.com/Fun-Habit-Disciplined-Pursuit

We've all heard about gaslighting… ...but did you know that this word comes from a play which was later on, turned into a movie with Ingrid Bergman, where her husband is trying to make her feel more and more that she's going crazy and losing her mind so that he could send her off to a mental institution and steal her inheritance? So how do you know that you have been gaslit? Dr Friedemann's Key Takeaways: Intro (00:00) How Do You Know?

Are you also always looking for ways to improve and grow into the best version of yourself? However, like with all change and growth, more often than we want to, a little inner voice may pipe up and make us wonder and worry about whether we are doing the right thing. This voice may ask: What if I don’t reach my goals? What if I don’t like the results of the change? What if others don’t like me because of how I changed? The paralyzing “what if’s…” can hold us back and keep us small and stuck in our comfort zones. Add to this other familiar inner obstacles like anxiety, lack of self-esteem, or a pattern of putting other people first, and just the idea of change becomes hugely challenging. Unfortunately, the longer we stay stuck, the less we believe in our ability to make a difference for ourselves. If you are ready to make a change but need some direction and support in the process please join me for this week’s episode where I will be sharing the 5 questions to ask and answer about ourselves in order to g

Do you believe that your anxiety holds you back from having healthy romantic relationships? You may have told yourself that you are flawed and broken and that, therefore, nobody wants to date you, let alone be with you. Or that you won’t measure up and aren’t worthy of true love and have to settle for anyone willing to accept you. Like so many people I work with, you, too, may struggle not to identify yourself with an anxiety disorder or OCD, believing these emotional challenges define who you are. The truth is that a diagnosis does not define you but is the starting point for your healing journey.

Did you know that horses get spooked many times throughout the day? There are just certain things that go unnoticed by us that will suddenly cause their body to get tense, their ears to go back, and may even make them start running. Much like the acute awareness of a horse that works to keep them safe, I see our anxious subconscious mind working similarly to keep us safe. Still not seeing the correlation? Join me for this week’s episode, where I explain the similarities and share some techniques you can adopt next time you feel your anxiety on the rise.

Although inner conflict is something that both men and women face often, it is an area of great struggle for men. Being raised in a society that tells them, they need to be tough, ambitious, and competitive makes it hard for them to attend to and share their more sensitive and insecure parts of themselves.  If this is an area of struggle for you, please join me for part 2 of my 3 part series on "Men & Anxiety."  In today’s episode, I discuss with James the painful realizations, the steps it took to overcome the anxiety, and how he as my client has been doing since their time with me.

Considering that stress-related illnesses are the most common causes of death among males in our society, it would make sense to take feelings more seriously. But what can men do to start acknowledging, expressing and addressing their challenges with anxiety? It all begins with realizing that anxiety is not a flaw or a sign of weakness and that it takes much more strength and courage to share our challenges and show vulnerability than to hide behind a mask of masculinity. And sometimes it takes others to show us what is possible to believe that we also can overcome our own challenges. Join me in this upcoming podcast series, where I interview four men and clients of mine, who went on the journey to face and overcome their anxiety – to ultimately discover themselves.

For many of us, finding a rhythm that makes any given task less overwhelming is worth way more than what may be considered a quicker way to get it done. But getting started is sometimes the hardest part. How do I move from feeling paralyzed by shame and overwhelmed to getting up and going to wash the dishes? This is where finding a rhythm through playing mental games with yourself can motivate you to get up and take on the task with greater ease. When my guest on tomorrow's podcast KC Davis, feels unmotivated to do house chores, she likes to pretend she is a world-renowned cleaning expert and everyone is watching her on television as one of her motivations.  Maybe your motivation is turning on some music and creating movement momentum by dancing through the tasks.  Or choose your favourite podcast or TV show to watch or listen to while working could be another. How you find the motivation doesn't matter; it comes down to doing what it takes to get where you want to be - even if it is only in small,

Anger will come and go, but it is our job not to let it take our power when it does arise.   Instead, we should see it as a message from our subconscious that something is out of balance in our world and needs our time and attention.  Join me on this week’s episode of Get Real and learn how to notice where in your life you are stretched too thin and together let’s learn how to let go and just be.
