07 Jul FADE YOUR WORRY

HEY KIDS, HERE’S HOW TO MAKE YOUR WORRY FADE 

We all worry, but imagine you have a strategy ready to reduce most of your worries real fast.

I also want you to know, not all worry is bad.  Sometimes its important to worry a little so we can make an effort to study for exams, etc.

First, work out what it is that you are worried about. Or at least part of what you are worried about.  Focusing on your problem or part of it is the first step to taking action.

Second, have a think about what you can do to help yourself feel less worried.  Is there something else you can do to make yourself feel more hopeful?  Writing down all your ideas can be very helpful.  If you get stuck, don’t worry about it, you can turn to an adult that you trust.

Third, you can ask for help, because when you spend time worrying, you often feel lonely.

You just never know if someone is able to help, so its worth a try.  Anyway, talking about it usually makes you feel better.  I’m sure you’ve noticed this.

So good luck and remember when worry creeps up, you can use the above 3 techniques to help it ease.  You don’t have to eliminate your worry totally.  But you can make it less.

Good luck
