Ajahn Chah says, “Whatever the mind tells you, do not fall for it. It is only a deception. Whatever negative comments and views it offers, just say “That is not my business,” every time, and let it go. More specifically, the Dalai Lama suggests, “With worry and anxiety, repeatedly cultivate the following thought. ‘If the problem can be remedied then there is no need to worry about it. And if there is no solution, there is no point in being worried because nothing can be done about it anyway.’ Remind yourself of these things repeatedly.”
