Worry Bird
I’d been having a high anxiety few days where the inner critic was screaming at me that I was taking up too much space and generally I was scarcely tolerable and that I ought prep for a break-up or similar. I got through the worst of it and tried to be gentle to myself yesterday. Then this morning my kiddo randomly volunteered information about the “Worry Bird” that lives in her classroom at school. The worry bird can only eat worries, so you have to feed yours to the bird to keep it healthy. I need to try to remember to feed my worries to the worry bird. The trick will be to actually LET GO of the worry, otherwise I haven’t actually fed the bird. Re-frame that stuff!
