Control
Being in control…
Who doesn’t love to be in control? Most of the human population does. People like to feel in power & charge of their own destiny. When the reality begins to crumble the anxiety creeps in leaving them simply sad and lost. It’s very easy to talk about it but the challenge comes in the real life occurrences. Life is full surprises & obstacles.

Don’t allow yourself to give up, don’t stay idle but always strive to achieve your best.
My Calming Remedy
What’s your calming remedy?
If you feel,
rough,
down,
sad,
hurt,
anxious

In order to correctly use it, please, focus on the present moment and think about what your eyes can see. Try to notice as many details as possible. Your mind will become occupied with a distractive thought and will instantly become more at ease.
