Hello to you listening in Fredricton, NB, Canada!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for  Thoughts on Thursday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

Maybe like me you have a robust imagination that works overtime to figure out all possible bridges that might be crossed in the future and how to cross them. The “what if” worries.

And then I remember something mom used to say whenever I got to fretting about the not-yet-arrived tomorrow: “We will cross that bridge when we get to it.” Until tomorrow arrives there’s no way to know what we’ll be faced with and how to manage it.

Meanwhile, our needless worrying sucks all the oxygen out of the joy, purpose, or wisdom of the present moment and piles on suffering like a bag of rocks on your back.

Hear me when I say I recognize that these are mind-blowing times. We don’t know what’s what from one minute to the next.

Practical Tip: Despite the current craziness we can practice loving kindness toward ourselves whenever our worries begin to run amuck. How? Repeat after me, “We will cross that bridge if and when we get to it.”

You’re always invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, would you subscribe and spread the word with a generous 5-star review and comment - it helps us all - and join us next time!
