Stress

Sometimes I find myself so overwhelmed about everything, and yet about nothing.  About things I can't control.  About things that haven't even happened yet.  And I start to spin around and around and can't help but focus on the same swirling thoughts that I can't let go of.  It's a vicious cycle that leaves me feeling utterly helpless.  


This topic was recently discussed on another blog about happiness.  The writer mentions that Eckhart Tolle recommends asking yourself "Do you have a problem now?" — as in, right this very moment? The answer is almost always no.
