In many cases, they work despite their struggles and some even find solace in their work as actors and singers. A large majority reveal that they deal with their anxiety disorders by meditating. In the book, Create Abundance by Zhang Xinyue, the author also reveals that she believes in meditation and is helping others learn the value of this practice.

Meditation has been practiced for centuries and it began in ancient China. Monks in China first began to meditate to get in touch with their higher power and make a stronger connection with their own psyche.

When meditating, it’s important to find a quiet place. You may want to put on some soft relaxing music. You can also burn incense or light candles. Dress comfortably—no tight clothing or shoes. Close your eyes and take some deep breaths. Clear your mind. Focus on nothing. Let the world around you fade away and try to contact your inner person.

Zhang Xinyue has this to say in her book, Create Abundance:

“I used to think the reason why we are taught to be tender-hearted is to be bullied. So, I was afraid to be such a tender-hearted person. Have you felt the same way? Now I have come to see that God helps only those who are tender-hearted. Really, all good things fall upon the tender-hearted.”
