Hello everyone and welcome to the Street on 67 podcast. Street on 67 is a podcast where we talk about what you want to hear. I am your host India Heath and let's see what's the word on the street. Picture this, it's your first day on campus. You already laid out your outfit the night before. Your hair is perfect, book bag packed, but you're lost. You don't know anyone, you don't know where to go and asking someone for help is gonna cause you too much anxiety right now. Maybe you didn't have to picture that at all because you've already lived it. In this episode let's discuss the anxiety of a new beginning. New beginnings are always exciting until that new beginning starts to begin. Why is that the case? From what I've learned, studied, and seen, us humans love a routine. So when that routine changes, it's weird because you're not used to it. It's weird because it's different. Change can be very scary so even though you might be excited for a new start, you might be excited for a new change. Living through it, especially if it's something that you haven't done before, it can be frightening enough to where you don't want to do it at all. You don't know what's gonna happen, you don't know the outcome, and you don't know what you're going to encounter on this new journey. But you shouldn't let that fear hold you back. That's why it's important to learn how to accept change. When you're stuck in a routine or cycle, it's hard to accept a way out. We're so focused on what you know that you can't accept the fact that there may be more to learn. A lot of people keep themselves in a cycle, whether that situation might be good, bad, or even toxic. They're used to it and the thought of something different or breaking that cycle may seem too daunting or difficult. So you keep going in circles. You must remind yourself that you're not what you're going through and you should be striving to improve. And sometimes what you need to improve is change. Another reason why you may be hesitant to change is failure. Failure isn't an end-all be-all. If you're so afraid to fail, you're overheading yourself from even succeeding. There has been multiple, multiple opportunities and projects that I could have done, but I was too afraid to fail. Especially coming from a somewhat perfectionist myself, I was too afraid of doing it wrong or it not being to my liking, to the point where I either dropped it or I just didn't do it at all. I have been trying to work on accepting failure because, again, failure isn't an end-all be-all. If you don't get accepted for something, it doesn't mean that you're not going to get accepted for anything else or even the same thing you applied for. If you were at an audition and you didn't get a main role or the role that you applied for, it doesn't mean that you'll never be able to act. The situation or opportunity might not have been for you. Failure has such a negative connotation behind it, but if you look at things in a positive way, like, okay, maybe the situation wasn't for me, maybe that's not something that I needed, or maybe I can take this failure as constructive criticism and look at what I need to work on so that I can have a different outcome the next time. Learning that can really lighten up your situation. Okay, now I know y'all love saying being the Lulu is the Zululu, and in this situation, y'all may be right. Okay, but wait, let's talk about it. All it takes is a little delusion and a little manifesting to make that anxiety go away. One thing that my therapist told me is that if you're constantly gearing up for a situation to go bad or to have a bad outcome, it's gonna be bad. Let's say it's an anniversary of something that happened and you're like, oh, I'm sad, I'm gonna be sad all day, I'm gonna be tired, I'm not gonna talk to anybody. Then guess what? You're gonna be sad all day, you're gonna be tired, and you're not gonna talk to anybody. Or the situation is so nerve-wracking, I'm so scared, I don't know what to do, I don't even know if I want to go. You're gonna be scared and it's gonna be nerve-wracking, but you need to tell yourself, okay, today might be a hard day, but I know that I can get through it. I know that it's in my head. I know the situation is nerve-wracking, but it's new and I'm excited for it. I'm glad that the situation was brought upon me. Listen, you have survived a hundred percent of all days. You are still here. You have nothing to worry about and you will survive this next day. The positive affirmations, the positive wordplay, you have to have that positive outlook in life. Not only a positive mindset, but positive speech. I know that being delusional and saying positive affirmations isn't enough to handle your anxiety, so here are some stress management tactics that I've learned. One thing that I do are breathing exercises. This helps because the way that my anxiety affects me, it causes my heart rate to go up, and if my heart rate goes up too much, then I can start to panic. So I do breathing exercises to help me calm down. I breathe in, hold it for like three to five seconds, and then I breathe out, and I keep doing that until I feel calm. Another way that I help with my anxiety is I tend to fidget, and in the past I would pick at my hands, and that's not good. So instead, I rub the places where I used to pick my hand or I rub my thumb in my palm. I also have a nice fidget ring from Amazon, and that's pretty useful too. Another way is to bring a little book with you so you can write or draw, and if the situation is to where you can read a book, then bring a book that you feel interested in. If the anxiety is about being in a new environment, try to establish a new routine. Maybe try therapy options or finding a creative outlook, and again, adding those positive affirmations and that positive mindset really does help. Now hopefully after hearing that, your next adventure might not be as anxiety-inducing. I started off tame for this first one, but the next episode we're gonna get a little crazier with a special guest. But for now, this is all the time that I have this week.
