The next time your brain runs away with you and your anxiety starts to take over, stop what you’re doing and begin counting the colors around you. Look at each item. See the colors in it. See the shades of blue, green, pink, etc. Notice how shadows create different colors. Notice the colors of objects reflected in windows. The number doesn’t matter so when your mind tries to run away again start up where you think you might have left off. Don’t forget to breathe.
