Here is the Cure for Overwhelming Anxiety
Your mind was not designed to carry the weight of your entire life in one day. It was created to handle one day at a time.
In the hustle to grasp every moment, you don’t need to solve everything at once or sink in the quicksand overwhelm.
Instead, pose a more fruitful question: What do I need to do right now to move toward what I desire?
You may resonate with this insight, yet you might wonder, How do I actually implement this?
Begin by becoming aware that what you are experiencing are merely feelings stirred up by your thoughts in the moment.
In the wise words of Sydney Banks, “Thoughts are just as natural as the wind, and they can be as harmless or as harmful, depending on how we perceive them.”
Take a step back, as if you were observing yourself from above.
This shift in perspective allows you to dissociate from your stormy thoughts and feelings.
Next, remind yourself of the self-discipline and common sense you possess. Just as you would instinctively release a hot spoon handed to you, allow yourself to let go of distressing thoughts.
Embrace this release as an act of common sense!
Now, ask yourself: What do I truly need to do?
And here’s a crucial point not to overlook—start by relaxing.
Relaxing! Relaxing!
Imagine you are like a monk seated high on a Himalayan mountain, completely enveloped in tranquility, zoning out to the world.
Do not force the answers from your mind; simply let them come to you in their own time. As Banks beautifully states, “The silent mind is the gateway to wisdom.”
Mellow. Mellow.
Stay in this focused relaxation for a few moments, as long as you can.
Don’t be astonished when a brilliant idea or a shift in perspective gracefully enters your thoughts. This insight is your inner wisdom manifesting to guide you along your path.
Revel in the knowledge that you need not shoulder the entirety of your life in a single moment. Instead, engage with what is real.
Take a sip, not a gulp.
Absorb the beauty of the rose in front of you, not the whole garden behind it.
Ah yes! This single idea can lead you to a more beautiful life, one day at a time.
Share this message with two friends, and empower them to embrace the simplicity of living in the moment.
Together, let’s celebrate the awesome journey of life by recognizing, “The key to a beautiful life is the ability to see things differently and to experience true peace of mind.”
Have An Awesome Day!
