Are Anti-Anxiety Medications Grinding You Down?

November 20, 2018/in Art of Meditation, Blog, Fitness Programs

When people read the title of this, they probably would wonder if there is some sort of typo. Anti-anxiety medications are supposed to mellow you out. They’re supposed to prevent you from always feeling on edge. Why the title? What exactly is there to grind down?

In fact, in the minds of many people, anti-anxiety medications prevent you from grinding yourself down with needless worry. After all, anxiety is all about spending a tremendous amount of mental energy and firepower thinking about stuff that has not yet happened.

You blow things out of proportion, you’re always feeling that you’re going to lose out on something, or something very bad is about to happen to you. But despite the fact that these rarely turn out, you keep repeating the process.

Isn’t anti-anxiety medication good news? Doesn’t it free you from that endless and annoying cycle of needless worry? What exactly is there to grind down?

Well, if you believe this, you’re only looking at one side of the equation. You’re actually giving up a lot when you take anti-anxiety medication. You’re rewiring your brain. Put more specifically, you’re changing the chemical patterns of your brain.

Now, if you are genetically predisposed to anxiety, then that’s an entirely different matter. In that situation, you really have no option but to take anti-anxiety medications because you require biochemical intervention.

However, for the rest of us who suffer primarily from external or environmental triggers, we are paying a high price if we take anti-anxiety medications to take care of daily anxiety levels.

I understand that it upsets you. I understand that it throws you off. Those are definitely uncomfortable situations to be in.

After a while, if you feel that you just have all this free-floating anxiety, it feels like you’re living in some sort of mental prison. Believe me, I get that. I understand it.

But you have to look at it from the other perspective as well. You’re paying a big price because you are flooding your brain with neurotransmitter chemicals when you don’t have to.

What if I told you that there is an alternative? What if I told you that you don’t have to use chemicals?

The interesting thing about anti-anxiety medication is that it dampens your mood range. While it definitely does a great job of freeing you from this all-abiding sense of fear or worry, it also dampens your good moods.

Remember the first time you kissed somebody? Do you remember the first time somebody told you they loved you? Well, imagine that happening and anti-anxiety medication is just lopping off 50% of the emotional impact of those experiences. That’s exactly what’s going on.

It’s kind of like burning down your house because you’re trying to get rid of rats. You pay a high price. I hope you’re aware of the sacrifice that you are making. Thankfully, there is another path.

Explore an Alternative Drug-Free Path

Anti-anxiety medications are drugs, okay? Let’s just get that out of the way. They are drugs because you’re introducing foreign chemicals into your system.

Sure, there are neurotransmitter chemicals that your brain doesn’t produce enough of, or environmental pressures reduce their load, but at the end of the day, you’re still introducing these chemicals into your system. You pay a high price for that. Let’s not kid ourselves.

The good news is that there is an alternative. It doesn’t involve drugs. That’s a big deal. It doesn’t come from outside of you. It’s all from within. In fact, it works with the machinery that your mind already has that enables inner calm.

What if I told you that your mind actually has a self-correcting system built within it? Otherwise, you would have gone crazy a long time ago. Otherwise, you would have killed yourself because of worry a long time ago. It’s working at some level or another. You just need to tap it.

The best part to all of this is that it’s cheap, you can do it yourself, and it is 100% natural. Click here for more details.

Are Antidepressants Killing You?

November 19, 2018/in Art of Meditation, Blog, Fitness Programs

According to the most recent pharmaceutical sales figures in the United States and Western Europe, antidepressants and anti-anxiety pharmaceutical medications rank in the top ten of all prescribed drugs. These figures account for hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions, of sales year after year.

On top of this, we’re not even considering the antidepressant of anti-anxiety or mood-altering uses of illegal drugs. We’re just talking about legal medication.

There is something fundamentally wrong with our modern society when our primary instinct when dealing with any kind of mood or behavioral issue is to medicate.

Now, don’t get this wrong. I’m not at all saying, nor dismissing the fact that some people do need to be medicated. That’s a fact. They need biochemical intervention.

However, it’s also indisputable that a significant percentage of people who take antidepressants or any other kind of medication don’t have to do it. There are other alternatives. Instead, for a variety of reasons, they feel that this is their only option.

I don’t want to be the one to tell you this, but you’re paying a big price if you feel that you’re stuck on medication. If you feel that this is your only option, you are actually giving up a lot.

Many Antidepressant Formulations have Unpleasant Side Effects

In addition to inducing erectile dysfunction or impotence, weight issues as well as other physical symptoms, antidepressants also numb you.

While they do a wonderful job of eliminating the low points of your moods, they also dampen the high points. Last time I checked, life is all about experiencing the highs and lows.

Now, I understand that the lows can really be soul crushing. They can really get you down. But unfortunately, antidepressants dampen your response to the rest of your emotional range.

Things that normally excite you, things that you normally anticipate and look forward to, no longer excite you. They no longer make you look forward. You no longer feel like you’re looking forward to some great times.

When something good happens to you, instead of feeling a tremendous amount of appreciation and an immense burst of happiness and joy, you feel numb. You know that something positive is happening, but it isn’t as intense as before.

This kills the soul. The soul feels. And it’s very easy to dwell on negative memories and emotions when your soul is hurting. It’s easy to dwell when you’re aching, longing and you feel that something is missing or incomplete.

But the soul also feels a sense of calm, a sense of joy when other people attain their dreams. You get this radiant sense of hope when things work out. And that’s what you give up when you feel that antidepressants are your only option.

The Good News

What if I told you that there is a 100% natural alternative to antidepressants? What if I told you that this alternative does not involve chemicals?

It doesn’t involve professionals monitoring your mental state. It doesn’t involve going to some psychiatrist’s office or spending some time on a counselor’s couch.

Instead, it’s something that you control yourself. Most importantly, it already operates deep within you to keep you sane. I am talking about meditation.

Forget about what you’ve heard before. If you want to get to the core of practical meditation that can help you gain the benefits of antidepressants without the side effects, click here.
