❤❤
Saved this screenshot after watching! I’m going to have this as a checklist and try to do half of the items each day.
@@maddievic2me too. All the best to you and I and everyone out there making this journey! ❤
@twirrybird8039 😊Vitamin B12 is natural energy that helps me alot.
I have several journals. A dream journal, a fear and regrets notebook and a journal that I list every morning 3+ things I'm thankful for.
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing with us. -Calista@TeamFairy
I'm a journaler also. It's what closes each day for me.
Anna, I am being very benefitted by this video. I like your supportive talks, your clarity with presentations, your friendliness, your sharing, your intelligence. Thank you so very much!
🩵🩵🩵
Thank you, I will try that.
Great information! Also, most people are critically low in vitamin D3 and magnesium. I take 5000-10000iu of vitamin D3 and 500-600mg of magnesium citrate. This is life changing.
True
I heard B vitamin and specifically B-12 and iron as well. Low iron affects a lot of us.
@yumeee1 with me, it seems I have to take a low dose of B12, or my heart will beat in a very uncomfortable way for hours. I think it might cause my potassium to get off. So it could affect others that way too. So just start out on low dose.
My sister keeps bugging me to take my vitamins - esp magnesium and D3... 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Great that you pointed this out 🙏 Particularly important for pre and post menopause. I teach this as a matter of importance in my menopause yoga classes.
One of the things I find helpful is to always have something planned that is enjoyable. It can be small like meeting a friend for a movie or going to a bookstore. Little touchstones of joy can be uplifting.
It’s the TRUTH about vigorous exercise. I was never very athletic until I bought a road bike and began riding with a group. From there I went back to swimming and got connected to a group that did triathlons. I’ve done two triathlons now! I’ve never felt so great or had so much fun. I love not only the exercise but the camaraderie! Have you ever noticed that athletic types seem more together or happier? It’s because they ARE! No room for depression when your pushing your body as hard as possible to break your own record and SUCCEEDING👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yay! It’s so good to hear success stories like this! Thank you for sharing your words of encouragement. We appreciate you here!
Nika@TeamFairy
Good for you
It's science! Exercise increases your endorphins!!!
Yes!!!! 100% success with this! I do ZUMBA daily! Dance my brains put to fun music!!! TOTAL JOY!!!
This is one of your best. Clear, concise help is what most CPSTD people want. It tracks with your practical approach - paraphrasing ' maybe a little less talk and a little more action" - this is suggesting what I should do. When you have CPTSD sometimes you want and need suggestions on what to DO, not solely what to THINK. Thanks Anna.
Thank you for commenting! I'm very glad the video was helpful :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Couldn't agree more ❤
Talking and thinking is good but can leave you spiralling.
I wrote them down - thank you Nicole Ireland 🇮🇪 I’m really in a place of healing years but now I’m using practical tips - talk therapy for years didn’t work it was only re traumatising me. I’m grateful for your work - I’m in 12 steps :30 years - Blessings 💜🙏
Balance! Pick 2 or 3 or 10 dreams hopes or goals, and passions, and interests. Follow them. Go to therapy, feel the effort that changing ones' personality from oppression to love it takes. Have 1 healthy friend, disregard and walk away from all the unhealthy ones. Be the one to stand up and take charge, not from a place of arrogance, but from a place of self defence, i am important. My loves, and goals, and dreams, are important. I will not treat myself with poverty.
One of my solutions (I have taught my children and many friends this) is to just say I’m grateful or thankful. When I see the trauma is winning, crippling, or paralyzing I start. Anything at all. I’m grateful for my home, thankful for my caring kids, grateful for the sun shining on my face. Its super simple, sounds stupid, but very, very helpful.
Great to here you have found your own way to re-regulate! If you'd like to try Anna's free Daily Practice, it can be a good support to your practice too. It is the technique that led to Anna’s own healing, and she uses it to this day. bit.ly/CCF_DailyPractice

Fairly recently I started trying to hold my tongue when I wanted to say something negative, ask myself if there was anything positive about the situation I could say instead. I am getting better at this and it has had the positive side effect of making my love for my husband stonger. Anna is right, trying to be less negative about what you say does improve your mood.
I can definitely attest to the benefits of movement. I started doing yoga at home about a month ago and the rewards were such that I consider it a part of my regimen, like, “take medicine, do yoga”. Instead of feeling like exercise was separate from my mental health routine, it became part of it!
I also have chronic pain and chronic fatigue, to the point that my body always felt stiff and tired and hurting. Doing yoga reduced my symptoms significantly!
More protein also helped a lot with pain and fatigue. Every morning, I mix protein powder into my latte and include protein-rich ingredients in what I eat as much as possible.
Thanks for sharing! -Calista@TeamFairy
Super helpful comment thank you
8:40 This is, IMO, the single biggest reason people don't continue with meditation. I remember during a daily practice call I participated in a couple months ago, this woman was so angry and she kept saying she couldn't do it. Others, including myself, tried to gently explain that one doesn't have to be perfect or do it the "right way." All one has to do is sit with eyes closed for 20 minutes... That's it! Everyone can do that. But she kept getting angrier and angrier, feeling perhaps that she was the only one there struggling with meditation. It's such a mirror for me, because I've been there before (we all have). Taking the first step to healing requires we do things that are different, and even when they're essentially easy, it can seem like an impossible chasm to cross.
Yes to working out! Lifting heavy weights and other proprioceptive activities (for me mowing and vacuuming, specifically) have helped me so much with my dysregulation.
Eating a very low carb diet has also helped tremendously.
Right? Crappy carbs are the enemy. Whenever I eat too much sugar it is REALLY dysregulating to me. Better to just avoid it.
It’s so funny how lately I just intuited that carbs are making me sluggish and low mood, especially bread with gluten. I know there is research that says removing gluten is often a placebo effect but it really does seem to help. 🤷♀️
@@jacquelinemarie9655 I rarely eat bread and feel way better. It's not really gluten but what they spray on the crops that makes it bad. If you go to Europe, you'll have a different bread experience. Low carb is a game-changer for me to be sure.
I'm on healthy keto diet for 10weeks now and it's making such a great difference in my mood, skin & weight loss is a happy side effect. Dr Eric Bergs channel is my go to for low carb info. Daily practice, walking outside every day and getting 20min of sun on my skin is all helping me to feel better
@@freefree1664 Wonderful! I am very happy for you! Sun is a major thing, which a lot of people don't think about. Very important for circadian rhythm.
I've often categorized myself as an optimistic nihilist. 😅Like many here, I've had struggles in my life. Just two weeks ago, we lost a member of our family, but even in grief, I'm trying to recognize the good in the everyday.
Unfortunately, the daily practice was not for me, but watching these videos provides a lot of insight. Thank you so much for this content.
Don't we all need this? A way to feel better regardless of how crappy things are this minute? A way to get re-regulated despite the swirling chaos? So relevant. The timing could not be better for me.
So often I think it's just my broken self and I am alone in this struggle. If I talk about it I get the feeling that I'm soliciting empathy, (maybe I am 🤷♂️), but it also places me in a victim role and not a power role, (or at least equal footing).
Thank U, thank U, thank U❣ I have found my tribe... finally!! I'm 70 years old and couldn't vocalize how I was/am feeling. I've watched three of your videos and have started to feel hopeful about understanding and correcting my response to certain situations and people. Thank you so very much!!!
Wow, I'm so happy to hear that! Welcome to the channel :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Wow. You're saving my life!! I never would have found the tools or words to explain it to myself let alone anyone else. My own mother destroyed my younger brother by getting him diagnosed with schizophrenia and then convincing another psychiatrist to sign a paper to his employer for disability. She then convinced my brother to open a joint bank account and began taking his money as he slid into drug addiction because of losing his job. She hid this from others and me until she got caught by me. He'll never be the same. I am strong for the most part, but I cry a lot.
Ops, I posted in the wrong place. I was sharing about narcissism. Super depressing stuff.
My love😂😂😂
💖🌱💖
Instead of writing which feels heavy to me like an assignment, I keep a small bag of soil and some little pots on the counter in the kitchen. I find that when I have my coffee and instead of anxiety, I get calm but planting, watering and spritzing my plants and enjoying my coffee. Then I power on my computer for work, look at my calendar then get in the shower and start getting ready and check email and just ease into my morning. I get work done and have meetings and go back to the plants outside, walk my dogs to stretch my legs but the plants are a meditation.
Good job! Thank you for sharing with us.
Nika@TeamFairy
Since I started meditation, and then yoga more recently, I have to agree with Anna about this. 🙏
Good for ýou for not starting antidepressants. I also went and struggled with terrible depression pretty much from 17-27 maybe and all without drugs. Because of big pharma people are brainwashed into thinking that they absolutely need them. No. What people need is a good friend, learning how to be kind to themselves, learning to control their thoughts, and things like sleep, sunlight, quality foods with good fat, exercise and especially weight lifting, and gratitide.
Thank you for this. I find myself getting so disregulated at work and in my marriage, and left like I have no safe place to turn to to cope with either one and the stressful feelings that come up. Life is just feeling very unstable for the past several months. I will try my hardest to follow these tips and report back at the end of January!😊
Thank you for watching. If you haven't already, try Anna's Daily Practice. It is the technique that led to Anna’s own healing, and she uses it to this day. bit.ly/CCF_DailyPractice
Nika@TeamFairy
Yes you are completely right. We can not solve all problems. Our life is one day that is today
Thank you for everything. You have helped me more than you know
Ditto from me too 😇
I’m so glad you shared that! Thank you :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Needed this, thanks thanks so much 👏❤
Needed to hear this as inspiration for part two of my mental health journey. Thanks for the reminder that although we may do many of these things, there’s always more we can be doing for our mental health. I’m going to be cutting more sugar, adding more veggies, and going out to absorb sunlight more! What about you guys?
Good plan! And if you haven't already, try Anna's Daily Practice. It is the technique that led to Anna’s own healing, and she uses it to this day. bit.ly/CCF_DailyPractice

I’ve been single for 11 years. Maybe a 7 month “relationship “ that was misery. Took me along time to just feel happy by myself. I was healing from my divorce,finding myself.. but miserable. Anyhow I broke through that somehow.. and still on a journey… got tired of feeling miserable in a relationship and out of one. Just do things. Exercise, eat healthy , have healthy ppl around. get into positivity. I’m not always positive but from where I’ve been …I can tell you it can get better… I think this is Ana’s message too. I look at her and I’m amazed. It can happen. You just have to manifest it.. get in a positive,healthy space.
Thank you for sharing this, I'm so glad you're here :) -Calista@TeamFairy
My first AA sponsor made an Anonymous Act of Kindness a thing to help stay clean & sober.
It actually does change something in your brain.
Love this, needed it. Thank you for putting it together and for all that you and the commenters do. Hard exercise has worked for me all my life. Things that have helped the most is anything that requires stabilization. From doing push-ups on a yoga ball, animal flow calisthenics, mace swinging, club bells, battle rope, and my absolute favorite, splitting and stacking wood for my heat. I do all of those outside and barefoot when I can. I hope you do what works for you and you move into what interests you.
I cant even think straight
Its all i can do to get thru the day. Ur words are so helpful. Thank you so much.
I look forward to my power yoga twice a week w my friend, it makes a huge difference. ❤
Wonderful! Keep up the great work!
Nika@TeamFairy
I would say I am happier in a relationship than single, a good relationship stabilizes you and helps you navigate life difficulties better. It does not make you happier long-term if you are not fulfilled and satisfied inside. I could not get into a healthy relationship as long the focus was on having one at all cost and escaping my own depression and frustration in life. I found a lot of fulfillment during the corona epidemics doing a corona-tracking job and just hanging out with a group of singles
Fairy I had a chuckle at end when you said “have you been writing these down…?” 😂 yep
Thanks! Very helpful, if i may edd 1 extra tip. If you're having a panic attack, or simply feel bed today
A cold shower,
Will give your heart a little shock and activities your pre sympathetic system. 😊
you have established a much need niche here, and your work is both effective and healing.. thank you!
It is a challenge and its one for years that i have called this "Lifting" and after losing my grandfather i actually gained his angelic support and I want to write a book! Thank you Anna! ❤Kindness is not weak, being and doing Kind spreads doing so does feel good and then everything changed for me, suddenly in a not so good way, i started noticing my kindness being neglected back & then began paying attention to each negative thing this other person was doing i was so deregulated for me. It must have been something deep inside of me that i was doing. ?? it made me hyper sensitive hyperfocused on really pointless things. Then i started to resent this person, making him feel bad because he was doing things specific to get ego boosts. Why was i so upset? It felt inauthentic and for me it was just a turn off and it felt misleading. We all NEED MORE JOY! not competitive agendas ❤🙏 Thank you for these loving life advice tips!
I've experienced my share of self-defeating behaviors
I enjoy your videos
I have been applying The Fears & The Resentments
Daily techniques since 10:25:22
Very helpful in releasing that negative energy
Many thanks & blessings
That's wonderful! I'm so happy to hear that the practice has been helpful :) -Calista@TeamFairy
This was another wonderful video , thank you,I do some of these things in my routine these days already , I get up early take a , cold shower ( that's hard)😬)10 minute meditation , then. three mile walk with dog 23:01 sometimes the order changes , I then sit down write a list of my intentions for the day, and circle two to prioritize , If I only get one thing done , I'm ok with that, I don't I watch , read minimal news , and limit myself on social media , I work out regularly and try to eat more protein vs carbs , I made a pact with myself that I wouldn't speak or write negative comments about anything or anyone , no reacting ( that's hard) so negative energy, I'm trying to get involved in volunteering at a hospice and animal rescue , also every day I write 3 gratitudes in the morning and 3 before bed , I don't get this right every day , it's a work in progress , and I dont beat myself up about it if I dont , anyway I've seen a difference in my mood and perspectives going to keep going with it , I hope this helps some people
Thank you for sharing this! It sounds like you have implemented some great practices into your day :)
-Calista@TeamFairy
Thank you!
You are the single most important healer I’ve met in a lifetime of struggle against trauma symptoms. What you offer is so perfect, I believe you have the chance to heal tens if not hundreds of millions. There will be statues of you.
i love this channel so much loll i needed this one thank you
Very nice!
Gold ..always Gold I tell ya! 🙂👍🏻
The Daily Practice has been a life changer for me. I tried doing it in slightly different ways and at different times, but I have found it works a lot of the time for me just to say the prayer before going to sleep. Most of the time, the following day is completely free of fear and I feel completely calm. To anyone who feels anxious or fearful much of the time: Give the Daily Practice a try.
So glad to hear it! Great job! Thank you for sharing this with others here.
Nika@TeamFairy

Very useful video.Thank You 😊
Thank you so much.. You are wonderful! ❤
I loved this video and the content. Thank you Anne!!
I'm so happy to hear that! Thanks for taking the time to comment :) -Calista@TeamFairy
love this thank you Fairy ..I think were all elves and fairies -- hiding away too ....In many shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions. When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?”
I absolutely love your channel, your videos are so insightful and I'm having so many aha moments, keep up the excellent content!❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you, Anna. I think once we believe we deserve to be happy, it's easier to try.
CC Fairy - thank you for this video! A lot of these I have commonly heard but what was helpful was your explanation of the benefits for example everyone says “go outside” but often I miss the caveat that you included of our mind wanting information that only the outdoors can provide. Appreciate your expertise 🙏🏼
Thank you thank you thank you is all I can say!😊
these are so good.thank you
Glad you are here!
Nika@TeamFairy
Thank you so much for all your videos. God bless you abundantly for your kindness. 💗
Glad you are here.
Nika@TeamFairy
I get up at 4:30 am 5 or 6 days a week and take vitamin D and journal often and exercise occasionally. I am rarely resentful. I check my resentments often. I meditate in my own way for inner and. Yes, I am much less anxious. Going to see my counselor for a reality check next week. I don’t freak out about anything. I respond to people. I don’t react.
So much understanding and accuracy. I appreciate you. Useful and easy to implement. Thank you for helping me change my ways and my days.
You are so welcome! Glad to hear Anna's videos are helpful.
Nika@TeamFairy
Thank you for discussing these areas, being easy to understand and offering helpful tips. I was very anxious a few weeks ago, about some new physical symptoms. So I continued my daily walks, but made some improvements: a more interesting route, increased to 30 minutes and going outside right after getting up earlier. This has made a world of difference in how I feel. Plus, I really enjoy it.
This is one of best videos .agreed. Excercise and nature are essential for me
Thank you, I revisit this video once in a while and experience the inspirations as helpful. It's plenty to choose from. I at least never get all of it included in my days. But that's fine I'm happy to have a list to choose from what fits the season of life.
Lots of love
Love you , Anna!
This video is so amazing and helpful. Anna your videos are my comfort. I always learn so much from you - your channel is amazing. Thanks for everything you do.
I'm so happy to hear that. Thanks for being a part of our community here! -Calista@TeamFairy
Thank you so much for this video and content. It couldn't of come at a better time. I strongly believe that in my case that this wasn't just by accident . Thanks so much for lifting my spirits. You made a big difference in someone's life today and it happen to be mine.
Thank you so much! So glad you are here.
Nika@TeamFairy
I will be watching this over and over. Thank you!! ❤

Amazing content , Love it !
You're an amazing force and I'm so happy I have discovered. I'm desperate for everything you have to offer
Kindness heals ❤💙❤ Gr8 tips ~ sharing is caring
Maybe my comment will be relevant to at least one person. I underestimated the influence of my female hormones on my moods until I got a monthly tracker - this allowed me show myself some compassion when I was really, really struggling. More importantly though, when my eostrogen started to drop at around 40 years - I was completely and utterly blind sided. I now take HRT (which helps a bit). If a woman is to become an alcoholic, or take her own life - it is statistically more likely to happen at the time of the peri/menopause.
lists are helpful
#10, what am I avoiding. YIKES! What a list I will be making! Thanks I needed this video today.
You got this! We're all sending you encouragement :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Hi! I just want to say while I don't look at your content as often as I should, I want to say really appreciate that input you have to give, especially as a fellow individual that has experienced childhood trauma.
I would like to give my opinion on what you had to say about the approach on dealing with stress and that in between message you are talking about that a lot of people do period I absolutely agree, it's not great if you just want an instant left or if you have a lot of stress in your life at the moment, that's not the right time to work on childhood trauma per se I mean I think it depends on the person and the situation, like I think of the person that's really deep in it, I think someone's bad coping mechanisms Could be deeply rooted in chalda trauma so I really think that it's actually really healthy to go through that it hurts before it gets better, and I think it only really is hard to go through if that's what you're thinking about. excuse me for this analogy, but think of it as when you have a really tough Bowel movement.
It's painful, it's aggravating, it's exhausting, for some people, they wonder when it's going to end, they're stuck on the toilet, they may be even sweating profusely they may be even embarrassed by the process they have to go through to be in less pain. ultimately though, they feel Lighter, more energetic, Calmer and happier Afterwards.
What I'm saying is, the thing is to focus on the good feelings during this allegory I'm speaking about and apply it to dealing with trauma.
I'm not trying to trample over what you're explaining and I think what you're explaining is amazing and great and works for many many people and I plan to hear of more what you have to say, because I believe I'm at the point where I get it we're in a lot of ways of altering my thinking in positive ways and I think that could benefit anyone, but I suppose that someone who has told a lot of the same things, Not to do this particular coping mechanism, which I wouldn't really call a coping mechanism but rather a means of healing, I just wanted to offer some extra insight on those points you gave about that particular method.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us, and I'm considering sharing this video with other people I know, since it seems that the whole world is under duress right now for a lot of reasons
Thank you for sharing your perspective.
Nika@TeamFairy
Thank God for you Anna! ❤
Excellent advice and beautifully expressed, thanks Anna :)
Thanks for being a part of our community :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Thank you Anna 🌻 I have such a list and I don't know what I would do without it.
My psychologist explained to me that the craving for carbs could also exist because under heavy stress our digestive systems shut down. So eating becomes a problem. At the same time we still need energy to keep moving. So, fast carbs are extremly easy to digest. This cleared things up for me so much.. as a child it took me multiple hours to clear my plate. I'd throw it out if the oppertunity was there. The cravings for candy were constant.
~Yes, repeating affirmations that you know arent true has always seemed damaging to me!~I will find a way to word it so it is true!!!~☆~Im not so sure regularly missing a needed hour of sleep is a good thing?~Most people already dont get enough sleep~Sleep is VERY important for health & stress~
YES!!! BALLET CLASS!!! works every time. way better than Prozac.
I have found walking helpful too..
I needed this today...fiance is in hospital with stage 4cancer..turns out its inoperable. Mum dies in april....but we oersevere..journaling,nature,friends,sunshine x
That is a lot to deal with, for sure. Glad you're here and we're honored to be part of your healing as you make it through this rough patch.
Julie@TeamFairy
Wrote them all down👍
Hell yes - the last tip (about doing something good in secret) is spot on. I have to resist the urge to score Brownie points (always in high demand in my life) because I have noticed I don't respond well to feedback. Immediately, the good deed will get evaluated and quantified. It's value is so much more when it's just for me (when I, alone, know that it's me that's the Elf). I hope I never get cornered into disclosing it.
A regular, recurring good deed is an essential part of the soul feast. Don't get manipulated or hectored into giving it away.
I will say that you do need to exercise some discretion. The old woman that, ninja like, touched up that ancient church fresco (?Spain) - she thought she was doing a good deed. Maybe, leave the easel at home.
Love you childhood fairy. You help me so much
I'm so glad the channel has been helpful :) -Calista@TeamFairy
Outch 😮 that reminds me; had too much cake today 😤😭
I'm going through so much for so long, I feel like I don't know what to do. I am worried about taking medications besides benzos (as needed, not every day, even though honestly I think I could take them every day, but I don't want to). I was diagnosed autistic and I just don't know what that means for me and healing. I don't know if all the same things that could work for others can work for me. I have a psychiatrist appointment coming up very soon and I'm wanting to see what they say. I just cannot get myself out of where I am. I obsessively think about the things that I cannot deal with, I wake up angry, I'm angry all the time and upset and can't even live my life. I get up early and I do journal, which helps so much. Exercise is sometimes, though I went for a walk a few times for 20-25 minutes and I felt a lot better and more clear headed. I think I just can't get myself to do a lot on my own. I did start doing yard work and that gets my heart rate up and my mind off things, which helps. I don't know what medications could be suggested to me, I really don't want to do antidepressants. I did try them once, and they made me gain weight. I had an easier time doing natural things. But past traumas are back because of the way my life has changed and I can't deal. I am hoping I can get the help I need to get myself back so that I can do the rest.
I understand anger being a point where you've had enough, and time for change.
It's awesome you've noticed how much better u feel after a walk or doing yard work. You're on the right path!
Daily movement practise of any kind is so great for the mind and moves energy around instead of being stagnant and feed shitty thoughts.
Regarding your appt trust your gut there and don't be afraid to say no or want a second opinion.
Ask them about alternative therapies other than drug therapy.
I've found creative art therapy so helpful when I was suffering with anxiety and Sui cide.
Bit by bit...you can't eat an elephant in one go.
Things take time...big hugs to you!
Dear anna thanks for all you do. Would you say what worked works for you will for all? Im finding many precious answers to my present in a buried past, it gets me out of the trauma tunnel and understanding what is real and good for me and what is a distortion. Blessings for an amazing work, wish you much happinness. 🎉❤

I just want to be free from pain,, I need my heart to stop hurting my mind to stop these intrusive thoughts. Just 1 person
In addition to this channel, Eckhart Tolle’s channel has helped me with those types of thoughts. I’m sending you a big hug and you are precious and everything will be ok. Kick the dust off your feet from the past and walk tall and manifest goodness and light.
Me too @rissa4863

I have found Meditation helpful..
Two out of the 11 tips in this video was helpful to me today. I really got my heart rate up today at work 😁👍. And I did a kind deed for another person😁👍. I'm not overly happy but I'm normal Baseline kind of happy if you understand what I mean😂.
Baseline is good!
It's not recommended to drink too much coffee, as it can cause anxiety ❤❤
Recent stressors have convincced me that I need to work more on my recovery from being molested by a "friend" at age 12...
