Repeat these statements daily


Rephrase these statements in your own words and add to your phone.

  • I can function with some anxiety.
  • Anxiety in the manageable range is normal and fine.
  • My goal is to reduce my anxiety to a manageable range – not to get rid of anxiety.
  • Anxiety is like cold, hunger and fatigue. They are all bodily sensations that are part of my biology. They can be annoying and uncomfortable. I can’t get rid of them, but I can manage them.

It’s all about repetition.
That’s the magic!

Mindset Shift

Think of anxiety differently

Tip

Think of anxiety like cold, hunger and fatigue. They are all bodily sensations programmed in your biology. You can’t get rid of them, but you can manage them. For example, you can manage cold in the 1-6 range, but cold is fatal in the 9-10 range. Similarly, anxiety in the manageable range is not the problem – the unmanageable range is the problem!
