Dealing With Anxiety (Tips to Cope)

Fight anxiety with love and intention, resilience, and patience.

Sometimes, being anxious is normal. Maybe you are anxious about an exam, and that is okay. But when you are constantly worrying, experiencing chronic stress, and in constant fear and it is interrupting your ability to enjoy life, maintain your emotions, and get out of your head, you may need support to overcome a possible anxiety disorder. An anxiety disorder is a mental health condition where anxiety goes beyond normal levels of worry or fear and starts interfering with daily life. It involves intense, excessive, and persistent worry or fear about everyday situations—even when there’s no clear danger.

Anxiety can be inconvenient, crippling, embarrassing, and overwhelming. But we can fight anxiety, and it doesn’t have to feel like a life sentence.

Here are positive ways to care for your mind and spirit:

A Meeting

My new poem for a new year! Encouraging you and I to make the most of this year and to face one fear at a time.

Check out my new poem:

A Meeting

I stood here waiting for you
I moved not one bit
I endured cold nights
Winter covered me with its blanket
I sat here quiet amongst my kind
Awaiting our meeting
Awaiting our time

Through the valleys
Amidst the fog
Times of uncertainty
And a land full of smog
What hindered you from getting here?
Your heart full of clog?
What or who got in your way?
Was it the years of heartbreak and disappointments
Or you yesterday?

How about fear?
I hear
it can cause a delay
Year after year
But I waited for you patiently to arrive
To thrive and not just strive
You prayed and prayed
There are times you fought
And remained
Steadfast,
Stood on business even when in despair and drained
You persevered and yearned
Applied wisdom and learned
But made it to me and now you froze
Is it because you have to again believe
And be reminded of past victories

Have you ever seen a mountain of such stature.
Am I intimidating?
Are you afraid of heights or the unknown?
I welcome you here
And I know someone who is not visible
But has been ever present and will not leave you alone

To the mountaintop and to the other side
I welcome you to recover all that has been lost
Birth that which almost died
Hold on to your faith no matter the cost
Uncover blessings you have not seen
Reach your full potential and fulfill your heart’s dream

And if you tell me to move with all of your heart
And with His word
Dont be surprised if I do what I heard
Face me.
You will overcome
Don’t give up and retreat
You have already overcome
I will surrender to defeat
As you stand victoriously.

Fight & Persevere Together (Scene From TWD)

I’m rewatching one of my favorite shows, The Walking Dead, and indeed this particular scene from season 6, episode 9 is one of my favorite scenes. (Link to clip is at the end of this post.)

This scene is so epic! And if it was in words it would be words of empowerment, encouraging us to not give up. That we are more than conquerors! That we must fight and persevere through the storms of life.

Well, Rick’s team is fighting zombies in Alexandria but is also taking back their home, their morale, and fighting for their group, their family.

I encourage you to press on. Press on to heal. To grow. To do more than survive, thrive. To forgive. To set boundaries. To accomplish your goals. To live life to the fullest. To fight anxiety. To become a better steward over your time and finances. To develop healthy relationships. To move forward from toxicity and seasons that God is moving you on from. To build your future through prayer, hard work, God’s guidance and His wisdom. Fight. Don’t give up. Be encouraged. Allow your tribe to find you and fight together. Allow God to lead you and guide you through each day.

Happy Holidays!

The group fight for Alexandria [6×09] [TWD]
