One of the biggest problems facing someone who suffers from anxiety is where and how they focus their thoughts. Someone with anxiety is often so focused on either a body symptom or something that has caused them fear, that in his or her mind it has actually becomes real.

Your focus determines you reality. While you are not going to get sick by focusing on it, you can convince yourself of feelings that don’t really exist. Someone with anxiety can actually cause the symptoms that they feel.

So what can you do?

Refocus! Refocus your thoughts to where you want them to go. Refocus them on positive self-talk. It will take some practice, but if you can master this skill you can start to overcome obsessive panicky thinking.

By refocusing your thoughts, you really can control your reality.
