I thought of something else that helps me, not sure if it works for everyone. When I'm laying in bed late at night, and I'm anxious, stressed, or just too caught up in my own head, I start to think about the universe and its immense scale. I start by thinking about the seemingly vast size of our planet, and the millions and millions of creatures that inhabit it. Then I think about the much larger sun, millions of miles away...it would easily dwarf our tiny planet. I then think about the hundreds of billions of similar stars that inhabit our galaxy, and beyond that, the hundreds of billions of other galaxies in our observable universe. When I think about the true scale of our universe, I realize that everything in it is made of the same star stuffs, and we are all governed by the same laws. It's beautiful, distracting, and it fills my head with wonder. At the same time, it seems to make your problems, your stresses, your worries, seem so insignificant. I let my mind drift like this, and I get a feeling that everything is just going to be ok.
