Anxiety Reduction toolkits

→  Do you have negative thought loops that put you in a place of panic sometimes? 

→  Do you get embarrassed to talk about how debilitating your stress actually feels?

→  Do you have sleep issues because of your inability to shut your mind off? 

→  Do you ever feel a tightness in your chest or throat or body from thoughts or situations?

Me, too.

I’m Azahar, and while I had my first panic attack at 28, I’ve suffered from overwhelming thoughts, a tight chest, and feelings of anxiety a very long time before that.

As a kid I’d worry a lot about random things. I realized if I kept my mind busy enough, I didn’t have time to think. 

By university I was an expert at full time work, extra classes to graduate a year early, Student Body President, a full social life, and partner. No space for anything.

Yoga had always been a tool I used to help relax and calm my brain, but I didn't use a lot of meditation. 

My first experience with guided meditation, it was like all the cells in my body relaxed, fully. I felt like I was floating, and I noticed it helped me to slow and rewind the cycle before it started. 

When I don't meditate, panic has a space to cling to in my chest. While I know this isn’t a magic pill, with meditation, I feel better. Less anxious. No attacks. Restful sleep. 

After a decade of teaching yoga + meditation, and a lifetime of anxiousness, I've developed a "toolkit" of peace. 

Anxiety behaves so differently for each person.  It's like a finger print - unique in how it shows up each day, and for one human vs. another. 

These meditation packages are built to be your toolkit. Something you open up in a time of need. 

We're not fixing something that's wrong or bad, we're utilizing resources to make our space more liveable and functional and that resonates better.

What matters is that you're trying new things, you're creating your own light at the end of the tunnel.

It doesn't matter how you get there, it just matters that you show up for you. 

I would be honored to travel with you on this journey. I can't wait to see you in a guided medtation soon. 

Massive love and light,

Azahar
