Your most recent anxious moment can be the “one moment” that matters. Go ahead, play it back in slow motion. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.
Use the power of thinking differently to sidestep your inner critic and declare independence from anxiety.
We usually think about anxiety as a burden. What if we were able to think about it as a gift? What would this shift in thought help make possible for us?
Struggling with anxiety? Feeling stressed? Think Thanksgiving all year round, and shift your perspective through practicing gratitude.
When we expose our negative core beliefs to the light of day — become aware of them, identify them, and challenge them — they begin to lose their power.
How is the way that you are seeing things influencing what is possible for you? What are other thoughts and beliefs that would be more helpful?
What if we thought about our worries as parts of us that might want a different role in our lives? They work very hard, and are likely ready for something new.
There is always more than one way to look at things. In your life, who or what are you seeing in ways that aren’t working? What would a different way be?
I wonder how different our lives would be if we saw beauty, rather than imperfection and brokenness, in more of the “cracks” in the world around us.
