We have all had the experience of worrying about something or someone at some point in our lives. Some of us seem to have a habitual tendency to worry, and almost all of us have known someone who is a chronic worrier.
Please understand this truth - in order for worry to exist, we have to imagine that something bad might happen. What we are worrying about has not happened yet, that’s why we can worry about it, and so this negative thing is by definition a fantasy. Seen this way, worry is a self-created state of needless fear.
One reason we worry is because we feel like we’re not in control. However, worrying does nothing to ensure a positive outcome and it has an unpleasant effect on your body, mind, and spirit.
The good news is that there are ways to transform this kind of worry so that it has a healing effect. Just as worry uses the imagination, so does the antidote to worry. Next time you find that you are worrying, imagine the best result instead of anticipating the worst outcome.
Another reason we worry is that something that we know is pending but are avoiding is nagging us—such as an unpleasant break-up, an upcoming test, a problem with a friend, or a family member. In these cases, acknowledge that you are worried and then take action for that is the best solution.
If you can confront the situation and utilize your power to change it, you’ll have no reason to worry.
Remember the instructions of the wise Dr Usui, "Just for today, do not worry".
I suggest you see all things in a positive light, do the best you can in any situation and leave the rest in the hands of the Universe.
Enough said.
With love and light, I wish you Enlightenment,
