Cultivating Calm & Stillness: Letting Go of Anxiety as a Lifestyle

For many of us, anxiety and stress are constants in our lives. We tend to pile on more and more competing priorities and demands and often don't give much thought to the overwhelm or stress it adds to our life. Well, that is to say, we might give it a thought as we say "I can't do this any longer" or "I'm so overwhelmed!" But it's a passing thought as we just keep going and going and going...

It's not that we need to figure out how to keep going with this amount of anxiety - it's about figuring out how to lesson the anxiety. We will never be anxiety free - but the way to lesson it's hold on our life is to become "anxiety aware." It takes "committing to a way of living where anxiety is a reality but not a lifestyle.

So how do we do that? "By cultivating calm and stillness in our lives and making these practices the norm."

It sounds counter intuitive, but it's the only way out. Come join us in a conversation about how to make space for calm and stillness in our lives.
