The media along with many of our religious and governmental institutions are whipping up more and more fear these days. What can you do about it?
When you feel fear coming on, here are some simple responses that you can choose.
1) Feel the feeling of anxiety, despair, or uncertainty.
2) Take three deep and long breaths. Holding each one in for a few seconds before releasing slowly.
3) Sit down, close your eyes and focus on your heart. Smile as you ask your heart: What can I remember right now that will bring me back to calm? Choose silence for at least a few minutes as you keep your eyes closed and keep the smile on your face.
What do you notice when you do this?
