"Worry! Let's shrink them..."

Worry no more. Shrinking our worries takes a little effort but hey, focussing on something positive and happy attracts that energy outcome to us, rather than more of the things we worry about.

"Where our focus goes energy flows".

Dream lofty dreams and as you dream so you shall become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; Your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil. James Lane Allen.

QUESTION IT - Is it your problem?

TALK IT OUT - Share it with someone. Others will welcome your trust.

WRITE IT OUT - Put it on paper. It’s easier to see it in perspective.

SHRUG IT OFF - Raise your shoulders, then drop them. Relax your whole body.

BREATHE IT AWAY - Inhale deeply, exhale with a sigh a few times. Let your tension go as you breathe out.

SET A WORRY SESSION - Give yourself 15 minutes to concentrate on your worry, and then firmly leave it behind.

WORK IT OFF – Do something physical. Give your tension an outlet.

LAUGH IT OFF – Look for some humour in the situation.

DISTANCE IT – Imagine it a few years from now. Will it matter then?

BALANCE IT – Find a good side as well as a bad.

EXAGGERATE IT – Picture the worst that can really happen. How likely is it?

HOLD IT – Say ‘STOP’, pause and steady your thoughts. Take a fresh look.

ESCAPE IT – Notice something enjoyable around you. Get into the present.

PLAN FOR IT – Get up earlier to prepare to face it.

MAKE IT POSITIVE – Surround yourself with joyful colours, sounds, and use your strengths.

ASSERT YOURSELF FOR IT – Believe in your rights, say ‘NO’ if needed.

Are you addicted to the worry...?
