Awareness:
Turning off
A Virus Called Fear
Fear and anxiety thrive when we imagine the worst.
Breathing is the short circuit for anxiety.
Focus on inner peace and stillness.
Seek becoming greater aware.
AWARE
an acronym:
A: Accept the anxiety. Don’t try to fight it.
W: Watch the anxiety. Just watch it like it is being projected onto a screen, and when you notice it, scale your level of fear and start to breathe longer on the out-breath.
A: Act normally. Carry on talking or behaving as if nothing is different. This sends a powerful signal to your unconscious mind that its over-dramatic response is actually not needed because nothing that unusual is going on.
R: Repeat the above steps in your mind if necessary. Repeat until the fear is not stressful and until you feel relaxed about whatever you choose to do next.
E: Expect the best. One of the greatest feelings in life is the realization that you can control fear much more than you thought possible.

Most people are often in a state being preoccupied… forgetful of inner peace (true self); not really present at least during some of their time. Is your mind caught-up sometimes by worries, fears, by regrets, anger, by obsession? That is the state of “being forgetfulness” — here but, not here…. Caught-up by being preoccupied.
