There is SO much in our worlds that we can control. If we spend too much of our time focusing on the things we cannot control, we can feel helpless and powerless. It's a place of anxiety and stress. Bring yourself back to this present moment with your breath. Ground yourself using your senses. Ask yourself - "ls this worry within my control?" If 'Yes' - What can you do about it? Workshop and brainstorm ways to overcome the worry or to accept it (acceptance doesn't mean you have to love it! If 'No ' - What can I do to let this worry go? Are there things that I can control that will help me to deal with this? Practice mindfulness to keep bringing yourself back to the present and to shift your focus away from what you cannot change. This takes time and practice. But its worth it. I have included a blank version of this cartoon for you to fill out for yourself with the thoughts, concerns and worries that are in your world right now. Ask yourself what your stresses are, your concerns and anxieties, and then place them in the circle you believe they belong in. I wonder how much time you spend in either circle?
