It’s inevitable to be concerned and even afraid during turbulent times like these. It’s normal for our stress hormone (cortisol) levels to rise and make it harder to relax.

But here’s the thing: while this is normal, it will not serve us. Fear of the unknown and uncertainty about what’s going to happen leads us into tighter knots of anxiety which can amplify stress and even lead to panic. These emotions all shut down our highest and best state of mind, when we need that most.

The childhood lesson of not crying over spilt milk is applicable here. We can’t change what has happened, so to dwell in the past we cannot change, and to worry about a future we can’t know for sure, is emotional and mental anguish.

These will not serve you. What will serve you, is to practice peace by focusing on gratitude for the good that is also in your life and in the world. Instead of sending fear coursing through your body, fill it with the peace of acceptance and gratitude.

For whatever is, will not change by our not accepting it, but it will cause us greater anguish.

So we do the best we can with what is, and then what is, gets better because our state of mind is better, no matter the outcome.

By focusing on the positives, the joys that are present, and identifying all the multitude of little things for which to be grateful, we flood our bodies with healing and resilience.

When we let go of what isn’t, we’re free to see the good that is.
