Anxiety

Sometimes things happen to us in life that cause us to feel tremendous amounts of anxiety. Most of the time, these events are either not all that important, the outcome is out of our hands or we simply fail to see the big picture. Making mountains out of molehills is another common expression for such a feeling. When we're in the feeling of anxiety-our chest tightens, we are unable to focus on other things, and we lose the ability to be in the present moment. We forget that anxiety is temporary and that these feelings pass-just like all feelings pass. It's all a matter of perspective. Next time anxiety hits-be sure to breath deeply, try to see the whole picture, try to understand what exactly is causing the feeling and understand that it's all temporary.
