I have anxiety issues. I Worry a lot. I’m not afraid to admit it.
This post started a while ago because of what I was experiencing personally in my life. Then someone close to me, in fact 2 of them - shared their deep worries and thoughts. And I desperately wanted to help them. Then I realised that I was trying to fix them when there is in fact, nothing wrong with them.
They don’t need my advice. They know what to do. They need a space to be heard.
The only I could do is to write, and keep on writing. And so here are some practical steps to help lessen your worry load, as they did help with mine:
Practice Deep Breathing
Focus on the present moment
Keep a journal
Be in Action
Acknowledge your worries
Let your worries out into the light.
Get physical
Take your worries on an adventure
Cut yourself some slack
Listen to Bob Marley
