Why Do I Write a Book on Anxiety?

Why Do I Write a Book on Anxiety?

I write this book on anxiety
Because in my experience as a psychotherapist,
It is the most prevalent
Of all mental health problems.

This book 
Is a course on anxiety.
It can be used to teach a person,
Or it can be a self-administered course on anxiety.

Imagine
It can become
Your own personal course,
Yours to use as it most benefits you.

It is an issue
That touches on everyone’s life.
It can be used by you 
Or anyone around you.

It’s meant to be enjoyed
By all who touch it.
I wish you the joy of enlightenment,
And the joy of personal self-transformation.

This is a gift to you from the Universe.

I Ask for Help

“Ask for Help” Solutions

I am the blogger.
I too need help for anxiety.
Maybe we all need help,
Some to a greater degree,
Some to a lesser degree.
The best of us may need it--
If there even is a best.

Let’s assume
Most people, if not all,
Have some anxiety.
Maybe it is true of you,
Just a tiny bit.
Let’s conclude it is,
And ask for help.

Now that’s humility.
Ask for help,
It can’t hurt.
I wonder what it would be like to get help,
I wonder.
What could it do for me?
Would it be good?

I wonder.

More One-Step Anxiety Reduction topics

It’s Monday, Love Day,
It’s time for me to go to the source of all love,
And ask for help reducing anxiety.
I probably need some help.
I could try it alone,
But I think it’s better to ask for help.
I’m going to check later
On how many times I asked for help today.

Here are more topics I can choose to work on:
Practice focusing on being in the present moment.
List the benefits of positive thinking.
List the consequences of negative thinking.
Identify situations that herald the onset of my anxiety.
I will deal with one issue at a time.
That’s all I can do,
I’ll keep it simple!

And here are more anxiety reduction topics:
How can I promote calm and peace within myself?
What has worked in the past?
How can I use my breathing to relax?
Here’s what I can do:
Every time I am anxious
I can focus on my breathing until I am calm.
I am going to give it a try!

I won’t be overwhelmed by the above list!
I will make each topic I choose easy to do.
If it seems difficult,
I won’t do it,
Until I can make it easy to do.
Easy does it!
It’s just one step at a time.
I’m going to make it really easy to do.

My Blogs are Messages of Love

My Blogs are Messages of Love

That’s all I want them to be
Messages of love

I couldn’t imagine a more appropriate goal
For every single blog I write
Than to provide a message of love

I couldn’t think of a better reason to write this blog
Than to write it as an expression of love
It’s what the world needs
More love

I hope I will never forget to make my poems
Messages of love
From the Source of all love
Through this writer
God’s messenger of love

What an honor it is to be that messenger of love
The one who gives to you 
God’s messages of love
And who loves you as well
Because he cannot give you the love of the Universe
Without loving you

Love
It’s the only treasure I have to give to you
It’s my reason for writing this poem
But the ultimate goal is
For you and I to learn to proclaim Our love
To the entire Universe
Through the loving way we live our lives
