Worry is powerful, it can dishearten you and have you see
nothing but shades of gray. There are techniques that even anxious
people can use to reduce the amount of worry and get on with the
business of the day.

worry. In this episode, a very basic look at some of the
tools we can use to help us take it down a bit so that we can
function and get on with the day.
