Question
Hi. iv been suffering with anxiety on and off through out my life i could be fine for years and then bang i have a panic attack and then struggle for a year or two to stop them happening, only this time its different... After a long time of five years with no panic attacks i was dealing with a lot of stress, a death in the family and money worries. when i had my attack it was so bad i went to hospital thinking heart attack, wasnt the case but because i had a low heart rate they kept me in over night adding to my anxiety. im a very active person doing marathons ect, and the cardiologist said thats the reason for my low hr but to be on the safe side ordered some tests. All came back fine apart from my arota being bicspid, im told its nothing to worry about its working very well with no leak or anything.. now i cant get it out of my head thinking i can drop dead anytime, keep getting palpitations, chest pain and breathlessness.. now im worried this is me for the rest of my life.. any advice i would be grateful though i have stared running again, the thought of it is in my head all the time.

Answer
Hi Neil,

You are not the only one that is presently having feelings of dying and death, as this is an increasing uneasy awareness experienced by many and are not only a reflection of the times we are living in, but also the choices we have made that are not creating life, but are sending us to our deaths. The anxiety and panic attacks you have experienced and over-ridden in the past are directly related to your fear of dying and death.

People that are highly sensitive and intuitive “feel” their environment, and when there is no way, or no acceptable way for them to express themselves when they are on the receiving end of unloving energy, they express it in any way they can. Thoughts and feelings are energy, and you can only tell the difference between loving and an unloving one by how it feels when it is being expressed. If a person cannot respond and express their true feelings and emotions to what is being directed toward them, (in the moment they are being experienced) they not only take in the other persons negative energy, but they also turn against a part of themselves that they deem to be not acceptable, for wanting to express itself. This denied energy is then stored in the Body, in your case, your Heart.

This energy can only be released if the person is willing to go back to the original traumatic experience(s) that created it in the first place. It is difficult to go back to your very early childhood with your conscious mind, but you can use meditation as a tool to help you access these long lost and forgotten parts of you that need love and acceptance.  Once that is accomplished and the denied energy released, there is no longer an issue. This is not a quit fix, and neither is it going to be easy, but it can be done. I’m going to give you a link to my website    http://shenreed.com/index.html and my free eBooks. Book 1 gives the meditation tools you can use. Book 2 gives you some insights as to why things are the way they are, and Book 3 gives my personal journey and healing experiences.
