When you encounter a dilemma, does your brain often skip straight to the worst-case scenario? It’s natural for our minds to look for problems — they’re wired that way — but that doesn’t mean every anxious thought is a prediction. In this 4-minute guided meditation, you’ll slow things down, notice the story your mind has been rehearsing, and make a little room for another possibility: What if it actually works out? Through slow breathing and gentle reflection, you’ll explore what it feels like to imagine a future that doesn’t end in disaster. Maybe you’re more capable than you give yourself credit for. Maybe you can handle whatever comes next. And just maybe … things will turn out differently than you expected.
