No. 117: Allowing Room for Hope

This week, to attain, maintain or regain my sense of wellbeing...



I will practice allowing myself room to hope for the best. When I find myself catastrophizing or assuming the worst, I will pause and remind myself that I don't know what will happen.

I will practice saying to myself: "I don't know what will happen, but I can hope for the best" or "Things might work out better than I expect" or "it's possible that things could be okay" or "it's possible I will be able to handle it."

By allowing myself to hope for the best, I will be able to reduce my anxiety and open myself up to positive possibilities.

Once I am comfortable with this practice, I will add Allowing Myself Room to Hope for the Best to my Personal Coping Kete for times of stress and distress.
