Stress / Anxiety

Who is the most unwelcome guest that appears at your door? (And it is not your son-in-law!) Again... Who is the most unwelcome guest that ever came 'knock-knock-knocking' at your door? How many of you had some dark thought or feeling knock at your door and wake you up this very morning... unwanted guests such as depression, anxiety... "Hello, anybody home?" How about worry...

Classroom Talk: 3/1/2019 - The only way to defeat those dark states within you that forever bully you around is to realize that in the Higher Reality of your True Nature there is no rule that says push must lead to shove!

All forms of psychological fear are created and sustained out of an uninvestigated relationship with a lower part of us that lives in perpetual fear of its own death. Until we understand that this fear is not "our" fear, but exists because of an unseen attachment to an imagined identity, it will continue to have authority over us.

We are masters at fooling others into thinking we have command of ourselves, but any attempt to appear as anything other than what we are is not only a lie but an act of fear. There is no real consolation in that kind of self-consciousness, as it is a default role that has been selected for us without our knowledge.

Guy Finley talks about how unnecessary anxiety, fear and suffering can come to an end when we voluntarily agree to become conscious of the parts of ourselves that presently hide out in the dark.

The awakening mind is fully capable of recognizing the difference between states of darkness and light, between what "serves" and what "steals" the new life stirring within us.

In this short video, Guy Finley talks about why anything that we are not aware of -- both internally and in the external world -- affects the way we feel and directs our actions accordingly. Becoming conscious of our interior state as well as our immediate external environment allows us to see tension and anxiety that is present within us without letting it take us over.

As you persist with the intention to slow down, you will gradually come to see that underneath your rushing is an agitation that is actually meant to stir a higher awareness in you.

Guy Finley talks about how rushing and being chronically late for appointments is connected to an unseen greedy nature that is always attempting to reconcile the moment in accordance with its own selfish interests.

Guy Finley explains that when strong energetic forces such as anger, rage, and anxiety appear in us, we can either deliberately use them for our spiritual growth, or they will be unconsciously misused and squandered through resistance.
