We spend a lot of time going around with "what if" questions about ourselves. What if always brings on anxiety. How about trading in your "what if" statements for "I wonder" questions. I wonder always ushers in curiosity. Anxiety is tensing. Curiosity is relaxing. Now, add a presuppositional phrase that predicts a positive outcome and you've found a pathway for anxiety relief. So, What if I fail the test tomorrow. That gets you tensed up. I wonder how well I will do on the test tomorrow. That gets you relaxed and maybe in more of mood to study more. Check out Angus' worry relief strategy in my new book, The Healing Journey: Overcoming Adversity on the Path to the Good Life. Buy your copy on amazonbooks.com.
