Worrying is an unnecessary evil when it comes to your mental health.

AVOID YOUR BRAIN WORRIES BY WRITING IT.

When you are training your brain to stop worrying, this technique could be the most valuable. If your brain keeps you awake at night thinking about something, put it on a piece of paper. This action allows your brain to breathe a mental sigh of relief at not having to spend more energy trying to remember these details.

MEDITATE FOR A BRAIN FREE OF CONCERNS.

Meditation can help train your brain to stop worrying. Researchers at the journal Psychosomatic Medicine studied the effects of meditation and found that meditation is particularly good at reducing cognitive anxiety. Although some people believe they do not have time to meditate, meditation is as easy as choosing to close your eyes right now for 30 seconds or more. The act of dispensing with other sources of stress actively trains your brain to stop worrying.

When you take a few moments to consciously avoid any unnatural noise in your life, you concentrate on what is most important to you. Worrying thoughts may come to you while you meditate, but this is normal. Those who have mastered the art of brain training recommend observing disturbing thoughts as they enter the mind and simply watching them pass like clouds on a breezy day.
