How much pain they have cost us, the evils which have never happened.
                                       - Thomas Jefferson

If you worry about all the bad things that might possibly happen to you, or to those you love, or to any greater part of this world we live on, or to the whole of Gaia, our planet Earth herself, then you are in good company. Almost everyone I know succumbs to some such sorts of worries at one time or another.

I, myself, have sometimes come up with very creative reasons to indulge in fretting and angst. For instance, when I was in medical school I remember vey clearly how I suffered from three very serious diseases: First, a gastric ulcer that turned out to be indigestible fast food; second, a brain tumor that turned out to be a severe pre-exam tension headache; and third, a malignant melanoma – with a report from the pathologist that read: VERY normal medical student freckle.

Over the years, I have managed to overcome much of this tendency. Two approaches have been particularly helpful. The first is my worldview, which has grown to include a belief in survival of the spirit – with several personal past life memories that feel convincingly real. This has eased my anxieties about death so that when something really bad comes down the pike towards me I no longer panic, having faced the worst fear I could imagine. Even more helpful, this view has helped me to live each day as fully as I can, enjoying whatever the Infinite Source choreographs into my life.

The second is WHEE, the self-healing method I developed and use regularly for my own stresses and pains. I share with many people a second common 'worst case scenario' worry – that I might die in pain. WHEE has helped me to release that anticipatory anxiety in two ways: letting go of the fear itself, and knowing that if I end up with a painful injury or illness I have a wonderfully potent, rapidly effective, immediately available method for dealing with any pain.

As I have used WHEE over the past few years, I have come into a 'meta-positive' space of confidence that I can handle any anxiety whatsoever. Even better, whenever I face a challenge I now hold a curiosity about how quickly I can clear it and about what other, similar issues from the past I will find in the same internal 'file drawer' where the current issue is stored – and how quickly and deeply I'll be able to clear these as well.
