The absolute easiest way to interrupt anxious thoughts
Anxiety is sneaky. It pulls you out of the room you’re in and throws you into a future that hasn’t even happened yet.
Suddenly you’re ten steps ahead, solving problems that don’t exist.
The shift isn’t to argue with the thought.
It’s to come back to your body.
When you notice you’re spiralling, pause.
Feel your feet pressing into the floor.
Look around and name a few things you can see.
Notice the weight of your hands, the temperature of the air, the sounds in the background.
Nothing dramatic. Nothing complicated.
Just proof that right now, in this moment, you’re okay.
Anxiety lives in “what if.”
Calm lives in “what is.”
If this helped, save it for the next time your mind tries to run ahead of you.
