How many times have you worried about things that never happened? Or if they happened were they as bad as you envisioned? Worrying is part of life but some have made a full time job of it .I am not telling you that you should never worry, but if it is pervasive than it might be time to structure it. I have found that the best time for me to engage in the worry fantasies is when I go to bed. I allow approximately all the cares to run feely through my mind for a few minutes and occasionally ask myself “what’s the worst thing than can happen”? This specific time period and concrete visual of what is haunting me I have found to be less daunting than my imagination run wild. Most of what we worry about either does not occur, or is some reality that we can meet head on. If the issue is totally out of our control we will cross that bridge when it actually occurs.
