		<description>This is a fun article for me because I love the aubtle nuances of words.

&quot;Anxiety&quot; IS &quot;energy&quot; in my world, it is simply disjointed, disorganized energy.  

My tradition is one inwhich focusing energy into a &quot;cone&quot; and then directing it out into the Universe is commonplace, so every time I find myself riddled with anxious energy, I sit down, focus all the shattered, scattered energetic pieces into a nice, neat little energy-ball.  What I do with the energy-ball depends upon what kind of energy I need.  Generally when I&#039;m anxious, the type of energy I need is grounding and centering.  I do a meditative exercise to ground, then I follow it with fifteen minutes of energetic dance to center. I keep my goal in mind but I don&#039;t &quot;sweat&quot; over it.  

That balances me and stirs the disjointed anxiety into a focused energy that I may use to further improve my day.

In my world, this is how I&#039;d describe your son&#039;s &quot;SpeakStrong GPS Interactive&quot; - a churning of anxious energy into productive energy.

I&#039;d even go one step further and say that without stepping into the midst of anxious energy, many of our pro-active, creative-inspiring, forward-movement achievements wouldn&#039;t have the fertilizer to start growing.

Good luck to your son!  I can hardly wait to see how the GPS system works.</description>
