Since my last post, I’ve been doing pretty well with not worrying. Granted, I have had my moments: I found a spot on my leg (but I scheduled a doctor’s appointment and knowing that I will get it checked out has mitigated my worrying a bit), and my cat hasn't been doing too well (she is 20 years old, so I keep trying to tell myself that it is incredible that she made it this long!).Besides using the imagery techniques, do you know what else has helped to reduce my worrying moments? Songs! Believe it or not, but there are many songs about not worrying and that can ease your mind during troubling times.
