Abstract: I’ve learned that there is another choice when I experience fear, worry, and doubt. One I reach for often and have to practice with conscious intention—a choice to simply notice. By paying attention to my automatic response, I feel what emotion is stirring in me and where. This article discusses how to then put it aside and focus on what you want to feel instead. You don’t have to focus on the thoughts that bring you pain. You can decide.
