Paddleboarding UK 🏄‍♀️ SUP and swim on the River Wey (dealing with anxiety)

Join me on a relaxing summers day paddle up the River Wey navigation in Surrey ✌️ It was the first time I had got the paddleboard out in a long time, but once I had remembered how to pump it up I was soon off on my SUP adventure down the river! The navigation is part canal part river, so it’s also a great spot for some wild swimming even though the water is not the clearest.
I’m also talking about anxiety in this video, and how I try to deal with these challenging feelings when they come up. I used to be so scared of the physical feelings of anxiety, but once I realised what was happening in my body it helped me to just accept the sensations and try to relax my mind. I’m no expert, but if you ever feel this way, you are not alone.
Hope you enjoy it and as always thanks for watching! 🙏

A little about us: I adopted my ex-racing greyhound Miss Nancy three years ago, it was a massive learning curve for both of us and we have become the best of friends, who love going on outdoor adventures, wild swims, van camping and finding vegan food out and about! We make videos showing what it’s like to have a greyhound as a pet, the beautiful outdoors, vanlife, and life with a greyhound!
When we aren’t making videos I am a jeweller and illustrator, you can check out my work here: www.victoriagracesilversmith.com

What a beautiful little adventure, anxiety is such a pain, when I am healthy and happy I forget it evert exists, but when I am stressed and tired and pushing myself it loves to make everything difficult. I found Melatonin helps to keep my sleep patterns more structured and that reallyhelps me. And music is my mindfulness. Thanks for the beautiful video, lots of love to you!!

You're an enthusiastic pretty woman so don't jeopardize it risking swimming in contaminated waters... it's not worth taking the chance my friend!

Thanks Tori. The nice hot weather on the video that day has cheered us up. It is a bit grey up North today. Just to let you know, that Debs and I got Max the Lhasa Apso (gardening gloves?) euthanised yesterday. He has been very poorly recently and would not have lasted much longer. He has been our best friend and beloved companion for almost sixteen years. He assisted with our mental wellbeing (and my mums) all throughout his life. The convention is to wait a while before getting another dog. However, I have spotted an unwanted adult dog on the internet and I am in early discussions with Debs. Best wishes Michael

Was that a canal? No way would I swim in a UK canal or river for that matter…☮️

Your braver than me swimming in that, forget the fact I can't swim but until the Water companies have got their acts together I wouldn't go near them. Anxiety and depression are horrible, I suffer with depression and have for years but I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

I watched this yesterday, I was going to write to you then but seeing your heartfelt loss, hit a spot that you will understand. Several tissues later, a day later, there is only one thing to help you, get a puppy and start over, it is the only way. You will never forget your beloved friend, ever. It has been a long time since losing Dylon, he was recued from being put down the next day, I took him home and he was the best friend I ever had,. A hound but an Afghan hound. ❤

I’m really looking forward to when you at some point,put out a video, and say you’re ready to get another dog. I think it will do you the world of good, and give you something to focus on, and start a whole new chapter in your life, with new adventures. I think your anxiety will ease a ton as well. Take care of yourself. 🙂

I've had so much anxiety in my life, really quite bad breakdown a few years ago. No depression though thank goodness. You just have to get yourself out of it, it can take years. Relax the body and slow down when you can't cope. ❤

Shutting down my mind was impossible until I got into recovery now it’s really quiet hardly ever get those feelings you get now I’ve had so many panic attacks but not had one now in 3 and half years since getting clean and sober 🩵✌️🙏

Having panic attacks and anxiety is completely normal after going through a trauma like loosing Ms Nancy, and doing something like relaxing on the river is the best way to deal with it.

Great video once again Tori and that lovely smile of yours is coming back as well. Dealing with anxiety is hard but you seem to have great ways of dealing with it. Look after yourself and sending you a big virtual hug. Look forward to your next adventure.

Good morning 🌅, Lovely to see the English Countryside, it is a great shame that the river are so polluted now, when I was a youngster I would go swimming in the rivers with my friends, I am now retired living in France my property as a river/stream it is very clear, the only time it gets murky is when there has been a lot of rain or storm,
