I loved your post. I was just contemplating how much worse worry is in the middle of the night. Also, did you buy the Blue Buddha or just give her/hurleygurley credit with a link. It's a wonderful photo <strong>@ Betsy: Its natural for worries to be worse in the middle of the night, just accept things are this way and float through them. Your thinking will return to its rational self in the morning....</strong> Hi! I loved your post. I was just contemplating how much worse worry is in the middle of the night.

Not having anything do with flying, it has to do with fleeing, as in "running away". Not for nothing, but its the “fight or FLIGHT” response.

Old Hermetic philosophy teaches us the Principal of Rhythm - "everything flows, out and in, everything has its tides, all things rise and fall, the pendulum-swing manifests in everything..." - this is where the popular saying "go with a flow" comes from. I believe that people tend to forget, or neglect the fact that in order to change their current mood/state/vibration, all they have to do is take a deep breath and realise that worries are there to stay only if we pay attention to them. Focusing on a solution rather then on a problem, is the way to go! Maybe easier said then done, but I guarantee it’s worth a try :) Thanks for the post Chris, I enjoyed reading it! <strong>@ Zarko thanks for chiming in, a very philosophical post and very interesting take on the subject. We must also remember that worrying is a defense mechanism and our mind trying to solve problems, we just need to learn to channel this energy correctly and not let itself manifest as worry and fear which can cripple us but rather as a drive to do something about the problem in hand (if there is one).....Glad to see your enjoying the posts! And amazing T-Shirts BTW, I'd love to get hold of one....</strong> No worries Chris :) I'll make sure you have the "complete product" very soon.

Worry serves no purpose at all, in fact I think it is a major reason why so many people suffer from poor health. The mind is really such a powerful organ, most of us don't stop to realise how limited we are by worry, anxiety, and negative thinking. Great post, thanks for the reminders!

I personally feel the same about taking out my frustrations on paper. When I get in, if I can only find 15 minutes to write about my day I feel it's much easier to unwind before bed time. It allows me to focus on what I really need to focus on as opposed to the little distractions I encounter throughout the day. great post as always Good call on the daily journaling.

I find a lot of the time when I am worrying about something it really helps to just write it down and keep scribbling away until I have calmed down. Some good advice here Chris.
