    Try and remember something you had to learn as a child, something that seems so easy to you now you don’t even give yourself credit for having learned it. Learning to walk, to speak… What else did you work to achieve in your early years of life?

    Take a moment to witness that young person who tried hard. Even now, years later, value that effort. Because that same power is still in you, to do this now.

    the less i know about what is happening around the world – the calmer i feel. Meaning that knowing everything, immediately, constantly is not good for your health.

    Sorry to differ here anxiety is not as simple as receiving emails from bosses, it’s the fear of facing meetings or going to public places, or closed spaces with a personal interaction with someone important or even anxious while you are a passenger in a four wheeler or bus. It’s not that simple to define anxiety and cannot be defined in this manner.

    I really wish more people would look up calming herbs and excersise and breathe… the whole world is anxious and everybody wants a convenient fix that doesn’t require THEM to do the work for themselves. I am so grateful for people like this.

    When a neuroscientist says more empathy is what society needs most today, you listen… Everyone is too self focused; and of course, when you only think about your problems, they become huge and anxiety inducing.
    Just be kinder, truly listen, give your mom a hand. Just look a little beyond yourself. Breathing and exercise do wonders, but it’s empathy that really reframes your mind.
