I went ahead and decided to purchase the LNB course. Has anyone else had success with LNB or the Alexander Technique?

I did. I laugh to myself I wasted such money. If you read my other posts you’ll see what I did. It was anxiety. Doesn’t matter how you don’t have anxious thoughts or issues on your mind. Somehow or another this feeling is happening and the only reason it continues to happen and happens with such misery and strength. Is because you treat it importantly. And of course you would it felt like you couldn’t breath properly and that threatened your existence. But once you get the all clear from doctors for your health. I didn’t believe mine when they said it was anxiety. The people who have recovered fully do now or they might call it somatic disorder or some other variation they accept. But the way to freedom. Do nothing. How? How can this be the solution? Well each and everyone of these people with clean bills of health from their doctors have tried to breath through stomach breathe less box breath, eat differently take this vitamin that vitamin etc etc etc. And did it go away forever no. Maybe a few minutes, a glorious hour/hours. But the only significant time it’ll go away before you accept it is when you forgot about it, when life got much more important. When something was so interesting in life you didn’t care if you felt like you were suffocating. People make the mistake of then trying to talk to someone so they don’t feel it, read something so they don’t feel it, no no no. So when you go onto lnb or whatever that thing is called, you may spend few minutes or while doing it and going did that make my breathing issue go? And it never truly will. Doing something to get rid of something that isn’t really there just tells your body there is something there that we are in danger. So it’ll look again and again and it will find that uncomfortable feeling everytime. Let me cut to the chase, how did I and others recover from pseudo dyspnea(false shortness of breath). I’ll put it into many terms. 1) Do nothing about the anxiety the more you try to fix the more of a problem it is. 2) you will never get better until you stop trying to get better. Similar, trying to rid makes you body look for it. 3) engage fully in life. Your life is for the living right here right now. Engaging in life is an active process, acceptance of this feeling is passive, you don’t do anything per say. 4) float rather than swim with how you feel. Most anxiety sufferers struggle they fight and it gets them no where as you all must know you’ve been struggling for years some. But if you just let it be, feel what you feel you’ll be suprised that nothing bad will happen. 5) don’t accept anxiety to try rid yourself of symptoms. Accept anxiety so you can live your life fully again. Your life is the prize. It’s waiting for you to live it fully again. It is the goal. Not no symptom anymore don’t make that your goal focus on life goals.6) show no importance to anxiety and all importance on life. 7) don’t care. Hard to do but simple. Don’t let it make decisions for you. Show it who’s in charge. Perhaps someone doesn’t want to go somewhere or be somewhere cause of this anxiety symptom well then do that thing. Take you symptoms by the hand and lead it into your life again it’s the only way your brain sees huh there’s no threat I’ll stop sending this throbbing signal now.
