If you’d like to track your practice, I recommend making a note of how anxious you feel each morning before you complete this exercise, using a scale of zero to 10, and seeing if there are any patterns to what impacts your rating over the course of the day. Adding affirmations for anxiety can further enhance the benefits of this practice.
