I have struggled with bouts of anxiety my entire life, seeking solace from therapists and medication, yoga, mindfulness, and alcohol. During one very anxious chapter when worries about a new job left kept me awake, I slept with a bottle of Jim Beam under my bed. It put me to sleep, but within a couple of hours I would awaken, gripped by a tightness in my chest that lasted until morning. Centering might have offered some relief. When traditional treatments to heal the mind fall short, centering can be a balm. Keating refers to the practice as “divine psychotherapy,” with the power to heal childhood trauma.
