We are living in uncertain times, and we find ourselves constantly having to adapt and adjust the way we’ve been doing things. This can cause us to experience anxiety, worry and stress, that can be the cause of our unusual reactions. Often, we have knee jerk reactions and find ourselves in a ridiculously silly and unreasonable state of mind. There are ways to reduce these feelings and increase our tolerance to uncertainty. Reducing the effects of stress is important for a sound mind and for our overall health and well-being. Practicing mindfulness will help us relax the body and mind and will also help reduce stress and help to focus on sensing and feeling in the moment, without judgment.
For the sake of simplicity avoid absurdity concentrate on lucidity
Prevent assumption and interpretation focus on comprehension
Embrace a sound mind and hold on to balance and intelligence
