If you feel on edge right now, you’re not alone.
But that doesn’t mean you have to let that anxiety or nervousness take control of your life. You’re probably wondering, “So how am I supposed to do that Mel?”
Every morning, I want you to high five your heart.
In this video with @jayshetty, I explain exactly what that means.

I was a little emotional when I saw this but I did not expect what happened to happen. I bursted into tears at “I am ok”- crying harder & harder for about a dozen reps before I could say it without crying. I waited until I could say it 3X without crying- & I did, but I am crying again now. I am going to do this daily, thank you❤
this woman has saved me
I am loved, I show love, and I will love again. My heart beat is my proof that "I will because I can."

I'm ok, I'm safe, I'm loved💜
During the last two years sometimes I would lay in bed and envision the next bad thing that was going to happen. I'd have to repeat to myself , today was a good and normal day, I am safe right here and I am grateful for this moment. Not the exact same but it helped me calm down when I would spiral.
Just. WOW. I am loving this woman's practical wisdom.
Hi Mel, You have hit the nail on the head about living through the last few years. Our world has seriously turned inside out. It is a shitty mess & so are most people's lives right now. Thank you for helping alot of people. You're one of the best!!!🕊🥺
That's amazing ! Thank you so much ! Another point to note is that when we place hands on our chest, oxytocin gets produced in our bodies (the calm hormone, or happy hormone. ) In our culture, when we pray everyday, we place our hands on the chest and recite somewhat similar affirmations, invoking the help of the Divine and His Mercy. It makes me feel so relieved and calm, especially when I'm going through anxieties or feeling depressed, or feeling afraid. It feels like a very warm and gentle hug !

I learnt about the vagus nerve due to a heart condition. That knowledge became a blessing for me when. I suddenly suffered from GAD. Our bodies are amazingly complex. Knowledge is power. Know your body. ❤️
This why yoga saved me during the pandemic literally..💙🙏 man why did I ever stop!! Starting and doing it again!
Probably the most helpful video of ANY! Giving someone a way out of fear is very much needed these days! Thank you! 🙏🏼
I wish I can share all your videos with my friends and family in Ecuador! We need this content for Spanish speakers too! 🤞

I did this with a group of kids ages 5-14 at an event. It was wonderful to see 100% of the kids to do this and crave tools to get through their days. Thank you! I'll be doing this with every event. Thank you!
The part of “I’m loved” brought me to tears, not gonna lie.
This is the first thing I've heard her say that struck my soul.
I have tears rolling down my face.
Hi Mel, last Saturday I woke up with extreme euphoria and energy after months of anxiety and depression as well as daily suicide thoughts. Since then the energy has dwindled down, but I constantly feel euphoria with enhanced senses like taste ,pleasure, driving. My eyes even feel alert. And I've even caught myself randomly smiling. Conflicts and things that don't go right are not bothering me like they were. It feels good right now.
You're right! Nobody can possibly fix a broken zipper. My nervous system can no longer sustain this level of stress. I don't want to lose this skirt and will just have to hire a professional because "I'm ok, I am safe and I am loved".
I once read in a medicane journal that taking a deep, conscious breath is like giving your own heart a hug. Break that down scientifically and it actually makes total sense.
My nervous system is in a state of rest and repair.
i’ve been having heart palpitations and other breathing problems that put me in the ER 4 times in a week. doctors keep telling me it’s anxiety and although i don’t feel what anxiety feels normally to me i know they are most likely right. i am going to hopefully try this and my breathing go back to normal.
I'm okay I'm safe I'm loved I will love again🙌💪
I couldn't say I am loved without wanting to cry. Because I am not loved. Only I love me and that flame has been dying for as long as I can remember.
That would be like an old dear friend of mine who used to hold me and say "You're alright. Everything is fine. You're ok," when I was scared or feeling weak. I miss him so much.

I’ve always been positive. But the pandemic put a protective coating on my heart and emotions. I love this. Thank you for this. You get it. I’m there!
❤❤❤~I have this posted on my bulletin, and read this all the time~Thanks Mel ❤️❤️❤️
👍🫶I’ve been doing something similar for the last 10 years. I have a mantra I repeat over and over…. “All is well, in this moment all is well”. I keep repeating it until I’m calm or fall asleep. Sometimes I say it when I’m stressed and can’t sleep, while meditating, or I hugging myself by crossing my hands/arms over my shoulders while laying down. It forces me to stay present in the moment and clear my mind. Wishing you all the very best. 🙏🫶💫✨💝
Thank you Mel. I’m rereading the High Five Habit for the third time. Your words are priceless.
I have a thing I do in times like this. Right or wrong, it seems to work. There's an old Star Trek episode where they encounter a thing that looks like a giant piece of okra. It eats everything in its path. They couldn't get around it, so the captain that lost the most decided that he was going to be the one to end it. He took his ship, damn the torpedos and rammed right down the throat of it. It blew up and that was the end of the giant piece of okra. That's kind of how I see things like this. Either ram it down the throat or spend the rest of your life tiptoeing, waiting for it to eat you. I know. Very sophisticated, but it seems to work for me.

I could have used this video 1-1/2 yrs ago before I had my heart attack, at age 62. I know now the extent to which isolation & uncertainty causes stress on the body. I thought I was fine but obviously, my body wasn't. Take care of yourselves, my Brothers & Sisters.
Im okay, I’m safe, I’m loved and I’m all that because God loved me first ❤
My insurance was unfortunately taken away as my hubby lost his job and mine doesn't offer insurance. I did my last therapy session and the therapist let me know my anxiety is so severe due to my trauma... I didn't believe her. I did this exercise and I just cried and cried.
Used for my Surgery! Your FANTASTIC Mel & soo Aware & Smart.
I actually hold my own hand at night when I sleep. I say: 'Your ok'!
This is really great😊 Thank you.
Just got very teary eyed through this. Thank you as I needed this.
I love that. You're so amazing
Hearty Gratitude to you Mel maam ❤ I promise I am doing it daily
My pre nursing science classes is my toolbox that’s handy whenever I’m in situations like that which are on every day basis. The thing is when we know that we’re not ready for something yet we persisting against all odds that we’re will be somehow ready for that particular success. Thank you for being supportive and assertive at times .❤
Such a great woman . Definitely a great speaker and motivator. We need more woman speaking out like this...😎

That is SO on point. Anxiety is the state of mind and hormones we experience when our brain perceives a possible threat.. it is the precursor to fight or flight. Great if a tiger is chasing you not ideal every freaking morning when you pick up your phone. Working with the heart is absolutely the way to go and I love this. I also use simple heart brain coherence techniques for this as it expands the heart and mind into the awareness of spirit.. the place we know we will never die and once we feel that expansion and know we are immortal beings in temporary human bodies anxiety vanishes. It is literally impossible to feel anxiety when we are aligned with Spirit.. this always works!

Thank you for that!
I like you you don't sugar coat life. You keep it real 😂
She is so wise!!!😊❤
Thank you I kept messing up at a new job and just kept panicking. My heart wouldn’t stop racing and I called out of work cause I just couldn’t stop crying. But hearing you saying that mantra makes me calm down a lot thank you

2020 was literally like a model of my life and I’m working hard to try and change it. I have more than one sociopath in my life. I am trying but today I feel discouraged.
Thank you ❣️
I am a grown ass man and a construction worker. But I still needed to hear this. Thank you so much.
Thank You,Very Simple,very powerful..."I'm ok,"I'm safe,"I'm loved".😊
Mel is awesome 🥰
As soon as she said “shut off your fight or flight system” it felt like a weight was lifted like i could breathe again for a moment 😢
AMAZING AMEN
I’m really rooting for you. I’ve seen a bunch of your shorts and I agree with you that it’s time for not just powerful women voices in the space, but voices that fill an absence that is very tangible. I agree that you are on it. Constructively I encourage you to stop using everyone and other forms of absolutes that are simply not true. You do this frequently. It would be an easy shift that I think would make you come across much more clearly. I don’t mean to pick on you, I just think language does matter and it’s important to make statements That don’t cloud issues with internal contradictions. Thank you for being you. On several occasions in particular you are speaking right into my weaknesses and I am grateful.
FACTS.
Thank you ❤ much needed
