Martha Beck: 我认为焦虑是一种普遍现象,它源于我们大脑的消极偏见和我们倾向于讲述关于未来可能发生的事情的故事。焦虑与恐惧不同,恐惧是对当下危险的直接反应,而焦虑则是一种持续的、不真实的担忧。焦虑只会单向增长,不会逆转,因为它是一种不受调节的反馈系统。为了克服焦虑,我们需要善待自己,用慈心来对待自己焦虑的部分。我们可以通过慈心禅修来做到这一点,每天练习10分钟,三次。此外,我们还需要培养好奇心,从恐惧转向好奇,这将有助于我们摆脱焦虑。 在与自己内心的批判声音对话时,我们应该像FBI人质谈判专家那样,运用同理心和理解的态度。不要试图压制它,而是要倾听和理解它,因为它实际上是害怕的自我试图保护你免受伤害。 创造力是焦虑的对立面。左脑倾向于排斥事物,而右脑则包容一切。当我们摆脱焦虑时,我们能够更好地利用右脑的创造力。我们可以通过一些活动来激活右脑,例如写名字、绘画、以及参与需要高度关注身体在空间中运动的活动,例如滑雪、冲浪等。 长期焦虑的人首先需要休息,让大脑有空间变得有创造力。休息和享受乐趣对于恢复创造力至关重要。我们需要善待自己,并允许自己表达自己的情绪,这将有助于我们摆脱痛苦,并与世界和他人建立更深层次的联系。 Chris Willx: 作为访谈者,我主要负责引导话题,提出问题,并对Martha Beck的观点进行回应和补充。我表达了对人们可能过度使用“焦虑”这个词来描述正常的人类体验的担忧,并提出了关于人们如何应对焦虑以及焦虑与创造力之间张力的相关问题。我还分享了我个人的一些体验,例如我曾经进行过长时间的冥想,并从中受益匪浅。
