Your result

Anxiety

Your answers pointed most clearly to anxiety. Worry, uncertainty and the need to feel sure before you move on showed up more than the other areas we looked at.

1
You may spend a lot of time thinking about what could go wrong before anything has actually happened.
2
You may keep going over something after the situation itself is already over.
3
You may find it hard to make a decision and leave it alone when you still feel uncertain.
4
You may avoid something you actually want to do because you do not want the anxious feeling that comes with it.
Important: This result is not meant as a diagnosis. It is simply a summary of the pattern that showed up most clearly in your answers.

What anxiety can look like on a normal day

You do not need to be having a panic attack for anxiety to be taking up a lot of your day. Often it looks much more ordinary than that.

You have a meeting tomorrow. By bedtime, you have already gone through several ways it could go wrong.
You send a message. Ten minutes later, you are reading it again and wondering if you said something wrong.
Someone seems quieter than usual. You start trying to work out whether they are upset with you.
You notice your heart racing or your chest feeling tight. Now you are not only uncomfortable. You are worried about the feeling itself.
You finally make a decision. Then you reopen it because you still do not feel completely sure.
You want to go, say something or try something. You decide it is easier not to risk the feeling that might come with it.

What is anxiety actually?

Anxiety is a normal human response. Everyone feels anxious sometimes. It becomes more of a problem when worry or fear keeps showing up, is hard to switch off, or starts changing what you do.1

Take a simple example.

You have to speak in a meeting tomorrow. Nothing has gone wrong. But you start thinking about what could happen.

What if I freeze? What if my boss thinks I am not good enough? What if everyone notices how nervous I am?

Your body can react to that possibility even though the meeting has not happened yet.

That is a big part of anxiety. The feeling can be completely real even when the thing you are afraid of is still only a possibility.

The question is not whether you should ever feel anxious. It is whether the thought deserves the amount of attention, checking, preparing or avoidance it is getting.

Why does the same worry keep coming back?

When something makes you anxious, you naturally want the feeling to stop.

So you check again. Ask someone if everything is okay. Prepare a little more. Search for an answer. Go through the decision again. Or avoid the thing completely.

That can make you feel better for a while.

The problem is that short term relief can make the same response feel necessary the next time the worry shows up. Avoidance is one clear example. It can reduce fear now while helping the fear stay in place over time.5

Is something actually wrong right now?If yes, deal with the real problem in front of you.
Is this uncomfortable, but not actually dangerous?A strong feeling does not automatically mean something bad is happening.
Am I trying to get certainty I cannot get yet?Sometimes there is simply no useful answer available right now.

One useful skill is getting better at telling those situations apart.

You do not have to treat every anxious thought like an instruction. You can stop, look at what is actually happening, and decide whether there is something useful to do.

A lot of people deal with anxiety

If anxiety is something you deal with, you are far from the only one. It affects people all over the world, and it shows up in every age group.

470mWHO estimates that 470 million people worldwide were living with an anxiety condition in 2023.2
10.2%In a 2022 Statistics Canada survey, 10.2% of Canadians aged 15 and older had symptoms that met the survey threshold for at least one anxiety condition measured.3

45 to 64
7.8%
65 plus
3.4%

Statistics Canada, Mental Health and Access to Care Survey, 2022. These are survey criteria, not the percentage of people who received a formal diagnosis.3

These numbers are one thing. Anxiety does not always look obvious from the outside. A lot of famous people still deal with it. For example:

Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds has said he has dealt with anxiety for much of his life. He has also spoken openly about overthinking, overworking and the pressure he can put on himself before interviews and performances.4

Emma Stone

Emma Stone has spoken about anxiety and panic starting when she was a child. She has described learning how to understand it and live with it instead of waiting for it to simply disappear.6

What can actually change in everyday life?

The changes are often small at first. But they show up in the exact moments where anxiety used to take over.

Before
What can change
Tomorrow's meeting
You spend most of the evening going through what could go wrong and what you should say.
You prepare what is useful, stop when you are done and let tomorrow wait until tomorrow.
A decision
You make the decision, then reopen it because you still do not feel completely sure.
You make the best decision you can and move on without needing perfect certainty first.
A message
You send it, read it again, wonder how it sounded and think about sending another message to explain.
You send it, and leave it alone.
A plan
You want to go, but you cancel because you are worried about how anxious you might feel.
You can feel nervous and still go because you actually want to be there.
A physical feeling
Your heart races or your chest feels tight and your attention locks onto it. You start wondering what it means.
You notice the feeling without automatically treating it as proof that something is wrong.
Time with people you care about
You are at dinner or on the sofa, but most of your attention is still stuck on a worry.
The worry may still show up, but it does not get the whole evening.

A simple way to start on your own

The next time one worry gets stuck, write it down and work through these four questions.

1
What happened?

Write the situation down in one sentence.

2
What am I worried will happen?

Write the actual thought. Be more specific than “I feel anxious.”

3
What do I actually know?

Separate what has happened from what you are predicting, guessing or imagining.

4
Is there anything useful I can do right now?

If yes, decide what the next action is. If no, practise leaving it alone for now.

The hard part is not knowing what to ask yourself

The hard part is doing something different when the worry feels real.

You can know that another hour of thinking will not make you completely certain and still keep thinking. You can know that checking again will not guarantee anything and still feel pulled to check.

That is where practice matters. Not because you need more information about anxiety, but because knowing what to do and being able to do it in the moment are not always the same thing.

Stop giving anxiety veto power over your life

Learn how to catch anxious thoughts before they spiral. Separate real danger from the disaster your mind is predicting. Stop treating every uncomfortable feeling like proof that something is wrong.

Stop replaying the same decision again and again. Stop preparing for every possible worst case. Stop avoiding things just because anxiety tells you it would be safer.

The goal is not to never feel anxious again. It is to get better at deciding what you do when anxiety shows up.

Spend less of the day on “what if?”
Make decisions without needing perfect certainty first.
Let an anxious thought be a thought instead of an instruction.
Avoid fewer things just because anxiety tells you it would be safer.
Be more present with your partner, friends or family.
Let a bad moment stay a bad moment instead of losing the next three hours to it.

How the training actually works

Over about seven weeks, you work with one practical tool at a time. Each day gives you a short video and something concrete to work with. You get time to use the ideas in your own life before moving on.

The aim is not to watch a pile of videos once. It is to practise the same useful skills often enough that they are easier to reach when you actually need them.

About 7 weeksA clear path from start to finish
Daily videosShort teaching you can use the same day

The person behind the training

Meet Søren Lynge

Søren Lynge has spent more than 20 years working with mental training in Scandinavia. He founded Lyngemetoden, has delivered more than 4,500 talks and has written 10 books about mental training and personal development.7

His style is direct and practical. He is less interested in giving people one more explanation to think about and more interested in what they can actually practise when worry shows up in ordinary life.

That is the idea behind this training too. Understand the pattern, then practise a different response often enough that you have something useful to do when the moment comes.

I have become free of my anxiety

I have become free of my anxiety, I have received tools to tackle it, so the anxiety is there, but is not allowed to ruin my life.
It is a 7 month program, where every day I receive a small video, with guidance for this week's tool, you get a total of 32 tools that you can pull out….

It is in no way a quick fix, but hard work. But it works, nothing else I have tried has worked. The tools mean that you can keep yourself in check. And constantly fill out the papers when something new comes up in your everyday life.

I had Rene Bering Kier as mental trainer, Rene is listening, a calm person who quietly contributes, around the tools, but also not afraid to say, that is not good enough. And that tool I got through too easily, again.

Only positive from here.

A better life

If you want to work on yourself, this is simply fantastic.
I sleep when I am supposed to sleep at night. I decide when I am going to worry.
I can decide for myself what I want to focus on. The thoughts that do me good.
I started with a talk with Søren. Then all episodes of the podcast "Mental Success". That got me on my way. But a 7 month program took me even further.
I am developing quietly and steadily, better self-esteem, am happier, more social, more aware of my thoughts. Wish that children and young people could learn to use the tools. Thank you to Søren, Solvejg and the rest of team Lynge

My journey with Lyngemetoden

My program with Lyngemetoden has been a life-changing journey. Before I began, my life was to a large extent characterized by worries and racing thoughts, which often stood in the way of my wellbeing and my focus in everyday life.
Through Lyngemetoden's tools I have gained a completely new perspective on life. I have learned to make conscious choices that support a healthy and balanced life, both physically and mentally. The tools are incredibly applicable in many different contexts, and they have strengthened my way of being in life. I now experience greater calm, clarity and ability to act in both my private and working life.
A large part of the success is due to my mental trainer, Brian Bersang. Brian has a deep insight into Lyngemetoden's tools and manages to communicate them with both presence and professionalism. He has been a fantastic support throughout the entire program, always ready with relevant input, whether it was about big life choices or small everyday challenges. He had a fine sense of the pace in my development and created a safe space where I could grow at my own pace.
I can warmly recommend both Lyngemetoden and Brian Bersang to everyone who wants to create lasting, positive changes in their life.

A big difference, in small pieces

Lyngemetoden.dk gets my biggest recommendation. I have struggled with anxiety and stress and after listening to more than 100 episodes of their podcast and attending talks, I decided to try their 7 month program, I really have not regretted that. It changes one's approach to life, if one wants to work for it. The program is simple and structured and it works well with the App, the tools and the 10 minute daily video training. I chose my own mental trainer based on their video presentations and it has really just worked from day 1 with Anton. I have felt from the start that we clicked well and it has meant a lot that we are both at a place in life with children and family. Anton is friendly, calm, punctual and down-to-earth. He has been incredibly sharp when I have needed to discuss some challenges or been in doubt about which tool should be used in a given situation. After every conversation he has pointed out that he is only one message away and it has meant a lot to me to know that help is always available. Anton has really given me the drive to work hard through the program, because it IS hard to change your mindset, but definitely all worth it! Huge praise to Anton and thank you to Lyngemetoden for the tools, talks and podcast.

It has changed my life

Before I started in Lyngemetoden 7 months ago, I struggled daily with both anxiety and anxiety attacks, I was stressed and depressed and felt like a huge zero, and constantly felt that I was not worth anything to anyone, I had no self-esteem. I did not feel I had energy for anything.

Then my girlfriend introduced me to Lyngemetoden, where she herself has also been in a program, and then she did the most beautiful thing and helped me sign up for a 7 month program.
I chose to get Brian Bersang Mølgaard as mental trainer. And I am insanely happy that I did. When you talk with Brian, you get a feeling that you are talking with someone who could be your best friend, because he makes you feel safe and you feel that you can tell and ask about everything, because you also know that the answer you get is super professional and there is simply no b..llshit. So huge thumbs up and mega thank you to Brian for making such a big difference, especially for me. 💪🥰

So after I have finished my 7 month program, I am now largely set free from my anxiety and I have learned to use and live by many of the tools that I have received through Lyngemetoden and Brian, and I continue to listen to the podcast Mental Succes, which has become my new playlist in the car🥰🥳 it gives me a kick to listen to Lyngemetoden and it has made my everyday life more beautiful and happier🤩❤❤ I can only recommend others who are doing mentally badly to give themselves a program at Lyngemetoden, because it works and is the only way if you want to help yourself, or others💪😎🥰

My journey with the Lynge method

In 2023 I go on sick leave with anxiety and stress and in 2024 I have then been at home for a year and at that time I am so plagued by anxiety and stress that I do not go anywhere
I move a little forward and in Dec 2024 I enter an internship in a kindergarten where I become acquainted with the Lynge method.
Now we say 2025 and I have completed a 7 month life-changing course at the Lynge method
I do not have anxiety anymore. That means that I go to the cinema to a café for a walk in the forest
Yes I have no limitations ….. only possibilities …..
my mindset has changed so that now I also have dreams and look forward to every day I get up
Throughout my whole journey Sabine Søgaard has stood on the sideline and I am so grateful to her that she told me about the Lynge method
So if you need a fantastic mental trainer then choose Sabine Søgaard

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5 stars to…

I have just completed a 7 month program at Lyngemetoden, and it has been life-changing.

When I started, my psychological vulnerability was a fixed part of my everyday life. Every Monday my body said no, and I could do nothing but lie on the sofa for the rest of the day. I was constantly tired, heavy in both body and mind and in deficit. For many years I had tried to get better through many hours with psychologists, without much effect, and felt that I had lost myself.

I started their 14 day free program after a talk, and already there I could feel a clear difference. It gave me hope. Therefore I chose to go all in on the 7 months.

I listened every day, wrote notes and filled 10 notebooks. It required hard work, but it worked. Along the way I also got the opportunity to be in their podcast and participate in an English interview, where I shared my story. It meant a lot to feel like part of a community.

Today I stand stronger than ever before. My psychological vulnerability barely fills anything anymore. I have not just gotten better, I have got myself back.

It is bittersweet to finish a program that has meant so much, but I leave here with strength, calm and concrete tools that I will use for the rest of my life.

Thank you for your work. You make a huge difference.

4 months later.....

It is now 4 months since I finished my 7 month program in Lyngemetoden and I have deliberately waited a little before writing my review of the program I had with Per. Not because I was dissatisfied, but because I wanted to see whether all the good things I had learned during the 7 months would also now 'stick'.

I started in Lyngemetoden because I had been through a very hard stress-filled project, which cost me sleep at night, mood, desire to work and generally the joy of 'life'. The project filled everything in my life for the 9 months it lasted, and in addition to stress also triggered anxiety reactions.

In short, that project brought me much further out than I wanted.

So my approach to my program was to get control of my stress, learn to handle it, and get rid of stress completely.

Let me just make a long story short. I did not just overcome stress in the first 4 weeks, I am now also at a place where I in no way see myself experiencing stress ever again.
I have learned an incredible amount about myself, trained myself to think correctly, take control of my life in all situations, learned to see the signs of situations that can lead to something bad and steer around them. I have become a complete Captain of my own ship. I stand strong mentally and physically again (because I once again got the energy to be active), I know and accept my role, I set boundaries and communicate and have a huge amount of energy to help others, guide them and advise my colleagues/employees in my projects.

I could keep telling about my development and about how I daily use the tools Lyngemetoden has given me to help myself and others, but it would become very long.

I will simply end by saying thank you for the program and thank you to Per Corneliussen for always being present, putting things into perspective, challenging and supporting, thank you for everything.

A new start to life

I want to start by saying that Lyngemetoden has changed my entire life. Never in my wildest imagination did I think that I could have as good a life as I have today, all thanks to Lyngemetoden, Søren and especially my fantastic mental trainer Brian. Since I was 11 years old I have struggled with panic anxiety, low self-esteem and extreme overthinking. In some periods of my life I had anxiety attacks every single night, something I thought I would never break free from. I was convinced that it was something I would have to live with for the rest of my life. Today I am completely free from anxiety. I feel free socially, thrive absolutely fantastically and have far more courage in life.
I am grateful for my life every single day and I wake up happy every morning.
The daily videos and mental tools from Søren are absolutely fantastic. Combined with the support, understanding and feedback I have received from my absolutely fantastic mental trainer Brian, these have been the building blocks that have given me, I dare say it, a completely new life.
I sincerely hope that Søren can bring this out to the whole world. I simply could not be more grateful for Lyngemetoden.
A thousand thanks❤️

THANK YOU!

Lyngemetoden is clearly something I will recommend to EVERYONE! It has taught me to be in the present, all the tools and conversations with my mental trainer Claus, have given me a completely new life, and an awareness of how much you can control your thoughts! It has given me a self-esteem I have never had before, taught me to look positively at things even in pressured situations, create structure, new healthy habits and planning in my everyday life, the list is long, but all this has meant that my energy and surplus have exploded, my anxiety and stress are almost non-existent, my head has found calm! THANK YOU Lyngemetoden and to Claus for being able to see which tools could help me when it was difficult! 🫂🙏

I have just completed a 7 month program in Lyngemetoden with Christoffer as mental trainer, and it has been a really cool and strong experience. The combination of daily videos, video conversations, exercises, Zoom sessions and podcast works super well and gives a coherent and structured program.
I have previously struggled with overthinking, negative thoughts and destructive thought spirals, but the program has shown me, if you are willing to make an effort and work on yourself, you can let go of all this negativity. If I have to say it in words it is: Present! I am a better version of myself with the people I am together with in the present and do not think about all sorts of other things in the future or the past.
Huge thanks to Christoffer, Søren and the whole team behind Lyngemetoden. You do fantastic work and really help people move forward!

My journey with Lyngemetoden: From lack of overview to big goals

Before I started at Lyngemetoden, I simply had no idea which way I should go, and I had absolutely no overview of anything at all in the beginning. I completely lacked structure and clear goals in my everyday life.

The program has very much changed that. Today I know exactly what I need to do, and I know exactly how I will get there. I have gained a fixed structure, set myself big goals and have gained significantly better self-esteem.

In the beginning it was difficult for me even to see the points where I was improving. But now, when a little over a year has passed, it is completely surreal to look back at how extremely much I have actually moved forward.

A huge thank you must go to Mark Sørensen, who has been my mental trainer along the way. His help has made an enormous difference for me. I can warmly recommend Lyngemetoden to everyone who needs to find direction, create structure and move forward mentally.

Thank you to Per and Lyngemetoden for a really good program.

I am very grateful for the many mental tools that both I and my family have taken with us. I have especially liked Lyngemetoden's structured approach, where week by week you get new, exciting tools to work with.

These are tools that I will definitely continue to implement in my own and my family's life for many years to come. Mental wellbeing is something far too many people underprioritize investing in, but what is actually the price of good mental health?

For me it is without doubt some of the best money I have spent in a very long time, and I can warmly recommend Lyngemetoden.

Want to change this? Here is how to start.

The question is not whether you can learn more about anxiety. The question is whether you want to start working on yours.

If you are tired of losing time to the same worries, replaying decisions, preparing for every possible worst case or avoiding things you actually want to do, you can start working on those patterns now.

Learn how to catch anxious thoughts before they spiral. Separate real danger from the disaster your mind is predicting. Stop treating every uncomfortable feeling like proof that something is wrong.

Start working on your anxiety now

A structured digital mental training you can work through from home.

  • Worksheets and exercises
  • About 10 to 20 minutes a day

Questions you may still have

Is this therapy?

No. This is digital mental training built around practical tools and repeated practice. It is not a diagnosis and it does not replace medical or psychological care when you need it.

How much time does it take?

Most days are designed to take around 10 to 20 minutes. The full path is planned around about seven weeks.

That is fine. The training is not mainly about learning more facts. It is about practising what you do when worry, fear, uncertainty or overthinking shows up in your actual day.

How quickly should I expect a difference?

There is no promise that everyone feels a specific change by a specific day. The training is built around repeated practice across about seven weeks because the aim is to build skills you can keep using.
