Anxiety is the experience of an uncontrolled mind

When we see the real nature and source of our anxiety, we’ll eventually gain freedom from it. We become anxious in the face of uncertainty and adversity, but it doesn’t mean the uncertainty is the cause of our anxiety. The cause is inside our mind; our uncontrolled mind. Anxiety is the experience of an uncontrolled mind. To solve our anxiety problem we just need to learn to control the one thing we can – our own mind.
