Welcome to the Anxiety Slayer series. Our mission is to assist you with creating more peace and

tranquility in your life through anxiety release exercises and supportive

tools created to slay your anxiety. Welcome to Anxiety Slayer.

I'm Shan Vanderleak here with my amazing friend, the fabulous Ananga Severe.

We come together weekly on Skype to share anxiety slayer sessions with you

and answer listener questions from our inbox and

Facebook page and together Ananga and I are armed with a powerful collection of

techniques to reduce anxiety and today we're going to answer a listener question that I can

identify with in a big way and that is what can I do to combat my fear of

driving? I have the worst panic attacks when I know I have to drive for 30 minutes or more.

And I'd first like to say that you're not alone in this fear. This is a big area of concern for a lot of people who suffer with anxiety and

whether it's the fear of driving on your own or being a passenger in the vehicle with somebody else.

I'll talk about that a little bit more later because that's more my issue.

I don't have a fear of driving so much as I really have some issues around being a passenger.

And one of the best things that I recommend is that you purchase some Bach flower remedy, the rescue remedy choice is the best.

I have that on hand in my home and I know Ananga does as well.

And it's just a delightful supportive remedy.

You put a few drops in your water and you just sip on that

and if you know you're going to be driving for 30 minutes or more, I would recommend that

you start sipping on the rescue remedy the morning that you wake up and have that with you.

Take the small vial with you when you travel

so that you don't run out and use it for your way home
