Easing Fear: Mindfulness Skills in Times of Crisis
Mark Levine, M.D., Psy.D
When we feel stressed we naturally focus on negative thoughts and feelings. Some negative emotions are useful. Fear protects us from danger. Anger is a useful response to a threat and sadness helps us heal from loss. But many negative emotions such as depression, anxiety, panic, frustration or despair impair our ability to see and solve problems. They often prevent us from taking positive action and tend to be self-fulfilling because they influence how we perceive and engage with the world. These negative emotions add to our stress and can even make us ill. And yet it is possible to train our attention in a different way that frees us from this struggle with negative thoughts and feelings.
