> Shyness and Social Anxiety
If you're
struggling with shyness or social anxiety, think about what it is
that causes your social discomfort. Is it fear of negative judgment?
Rejection? That people won't like you? That you're not interesting
enough?
There are
many reasons people become socially uneasy. However, nearly all
the reasons are simply a reflection of the desire to avoid some
sort of body energy that arises in social situations - perhaps nervousness,
awkwardness, insecurity, or some other uncomfortable feeling.
Whatever
that feeling is for you, ask yourself this question: Would
you have a social anxiety problem if you knew you could handle that
feeling? Do you think a shy person would remain shy for long if
they learned to enjoy the feeling of approaching people? Apply the
MC2 Method to the inner sensations that you're now avoiding, and
your shyness will soon disappear.
After using
the MC2 Method with social anxiety, your mind will re-associate
social activity with feelings of calmness and confidence, rather
than anxiety. And in the presence of this new mental association,
shyness will no longer exist.
