Tips for anxiety/worrying about the future?

Focus only on the present moment, on things you can only control. The practice of being in the present will heal you. Becoming obsessive with the future only creates anxiety, and worry. Work on doing the best you can now, as that’ll be the results of future success. You must train your mind to not worry so much of the unknown, because what’s important is the you right now, not the you in the future. Because without the present, there’s no future. I know it’s much easier said than done, but with time, practice and patience, it’ll get easier. I used to be constantly worried about everything in the past, present and future. But with time, I’ve taught myself that being so worried and stressed about the future, only held me back from doing my absolute best now, and that I couldn’t be my best self without changing. So I did my best to train my mind to not worry on what I couldn’t control. Though not every day is perfect, and some days I do wonder of what my future holds, but it’s not enough to consume me. It’s okay to have off days, here and there. Do things that’ll help you stay grounded, and present such as practising daily gratitude, daily guided meditation, surrounding yourself in environments that makes you feel at peace and calm, doing things that’ll help keep you busy and distracted such as new hobbies, learning a new skill, working, studying, etc. Don’t put so much pressure on yourself, let your life flow at it’s own pace. What is meant for you will come to you at the moment it needs to. Wishing you all the best! 💗
