Fear and Anxiety

Fear is a liar. Is the fear of the future. No one need to fear the future. The future is out of our control. When we begin to have anxiety of things that are out of our control, we need to ground ourselves to the here and now. Some grounding techniques includes the 5 senses:

1. Search for five things you can see, say them out loud.

2. Search for four things you can touch, feel the texture.

3. Search for three things you can hear, listen carefully.

4. Search for two things you can smell.

5. Search for one thing they can taste, try different things.

Try these things to see which works best for you until your anxiety has passed.
