WORRY! I WISH I WAS NOT A WORRY WART!!!!

Henry Winkler was The Fonz, in the sitcom, "Happy Days." He admitted that "worrying is my favorite indoor sport!" I can relate! This time of year can be especially fraught with anxiety.

It is definitely possible to decrease our anxiety and worry by thought stopping and reframing our terroristic thoughts. On some days I need to use that tool a lot!

For example, "I will never get everything done!" This stress filled statement can be reframed, "I will do the best I can." "I need to ask for help." " If I buy the turkey dressing who cares!"

Small behavioral steps such as these can make for a happier holiday!

Take care!
