Natural Remedies for Anxiety: These simple steps activate your courage
Are you haunted by heartbreaks of the past?
These natural remedies for anxiety might help you cross the threshold of your dream with more peace.
It is hard NOT to have anxiety about relationships. Even if you've never had an unhealthy relationship, you probably know someone who has. Plus, relationships end--and can leave you with fear of abandonment.
One woman's story: Her father died when she was 4 and her mother was heartbroken. When she grew up she married someone who ended up being unavailable and uninterested. She became a single mother and dated a few men (who were also unavailable and uninterested).
Now (her children are grown) there is a man who adores her and wants to marry. But she is haunted by her past; anxious, insecure, withdrawn. Despite her love and dreams, she is unable to open to her new possibility.
Each step is just one of many natural remedies for anxiety that can help you immensely. See what you think (please, let us know what it does for you).

Spend some time with this list. Feel it. Ask your higher self which strengths are most important for you, which are crucial for a healthy relationship. You might ask your higher self which ones are most absent; in you, in your partners, or even in your parents.
These relationship strengths are your edge of growth. Intend that you will grow into them.
Ask your higher self to surface these qualities within you, to make them manifest, to bring you into relationship with them. Accept that life and relationships will bring you lessons and messages to help you learn and integrate these strengths.
One might even say that the past happened in order to help you discover where you are ready to grow. When you accept your past as important learning, you begin to see the future as an opportunity (rather than anxiety provoking).
