Stay in the present. Every time you notice that you are living in the past or the future, bring yourself to the present right here right now. Do this through mindfulness. When you are aware of your thoughts, you can catch yourself before you spiral down that negative vortex. Do a physical check in.. How does my body feel? How does my breath feel? Am I relaxed? Are there parts of my body I can relax? Close your eyes… notice sounds, smells, sense of touch..

Meditation helps me let go of the past. It helps my thoughts slow down.
