Stay in the Present

Worrying is always about something that will or could take place in the future. Therefore, if you stay in the present you can avoid the potential for worry. Do this by asking yourself about your five senses. What do you see, hear, smell, taste, feel right this very moment? Whatever comes to mind, (make sure it is positive) be appreciative of it no matter how small or insignificant it seems. For example, you may take in and be grateful for your coffee in the morning. Linger on the taste of each sip, the warmth of the mug in your hand. Show your gratitude by writing it down in a gratitude journal or throwing up a quick thank you to God. Stay in the present and let your worrying stay in the past on this "Not Gonna Worry" Wednesday.
