Hi Brett,
"Anxiety" can be used to mean so many different things. So,I might be totally off the mark but I'll try...
Here's what I found helpful: a really good magnesium supplement. I kept getting a twitchy eye and muscle pain- a few people, over time, had mentioned magnesium was good for this so I tried it. I also noted on the bottle that it helps with "mild" anxiety.
Very soon my eye stopped twitching (not chakra related) and I slept better. Then I ran out and thought I'd get around to getting some more. Before I knew it, I was feeling unreasonably depressed, not just anxious. So, I resumed and felt better within a very short time.
My husband has started taking it too and says he feels much better for it.
There are a lot of other herbal remedies for anxiety, of course. I find increasing physical activity (even if you do a lot already) can help. It seems to eliminate unneeded hormones that can throw the balance (this might be a woman thing though). Get enough sunlight too and regular sleep if possible. Feeling overwhelmed by too much work is a fast track to anxiety as is boredom and the feeling that work is unchallenging or meaningless. Avoid reading doom and gloom materials too.
These things pass. Sometimes a little therapy can save a lot of angst. Sometimes too we spend too much time in introspection and we just need to get out and about and have fun as best we can. Maybe you're life isn't quite measuring up to expectation at the moment and you have a fear it will always be this way. There's no reason to believe this just as there's no reason to buy into the myth that we should be ever cheerful.
Cheers
