Anxiety and insomnia come when we are afraid. We are afraid when we stop trusting.

When we stop trusting, we start losing sleep at night.

Examples of this are when we stop trusting:

1. our abilities on the job

2. our spouses

3. our kids

4. our country’s leadership

5. our media

6. God

Now, a healthy dose of skepticism is prudent, but when we stop having faith in the hull of our life, the rivets start coming out and things fall apart…

The result? Anxiety. Insomnia. A lack of confidence in ourselves, others, and life in general.

Here at The Warm Milk Journal we envision a wholeness: well balanced healthy people living the life of their dreams by day and sleeping restfully and peacefully by night.

Alas, to counteract all of this anxiety and lack of trust, we need to start trusting again. We need to regain and get solid with our faith,

with our power …

To do this we need to get straight and simply KNOW a few things…

Repeat and affirm…

1. I Am love

2. I Am loved

3. I Am safe

4. I am right where I need to be right now

5. Life works with me

6. I am doing my best and that is good enough

7. Other people are doing their best. I pray and bless them. We are all in this together…

8. All things pass…

9. A pendulum is at work all the time (if something is not to my liking, the pendulum will swing the other way in due time)

10. I am a gift and have so much to offer others.

In Peace,

Debra

To me faith means not worrying. ~ John Dewey
