The NLP technique of reframing refers to the process of viewing a

negative situation from a positive angle (frame). In other words,

looking for the good in a situation that might seem completely bad. 

Example: You just lost your job and it feels like your world is ending. It
is a bad situation that you have lost your job, but there are other ways
to look at it. With reframing you could look at this with a positive spin.
You can see it  as an opportunity to embark on a new profession or to
learn new skills to get a better job. 

Content reframing is all about putting a positive spin on a negative

situation. This can be done with virtually any negative experience you
can think of.

How to use the Reframing NLP Technique for

Anxiety:
 Think about how you’re feeling. What is the negative emotion
you’re feeling and would like to change? 
 Find out where the emotion is coming from. What is triggering
this negative emotion? 
 Try to analyze the intention of the mind in feeling this emotion.
For instance, you may have a fear of public speaking. Just the thought
of speaking in front of a crowd triggers your anxiety. This occurs
because your brain is trying to protect you from something that it
thinks will be harmful to you.   This is a valid intention as the brain is
only trying to protect you from what it deems a risky situation,
however, it is a maladaptive way of thinking.
 Think of two or three alternative ways of looking at the situation.
For instance, say to yourself, many people have spoken in front of
large crowds and they came out okay. Or, the only way to overcome
fear is to face it, and the more I do it the more confident I will become.
Our negative emotions and thoughts are oftentimes rooted in our
subconscious, developed through old habits that are no longer useful
to us.

Through reframing, we are able to change these negative thought

patterns and eventually break them through repetition.
