Restless feelings could prevent you from achieving a sense of peace today. Because your mind is likely juggling a number of unrelated ideas, you may find yourself unable to concentrate and plagued by anxiety. Consider taking a break from your responsibilities. Engaging in entertaining activities will likely help you channel your nervous energy by giving you an object or aim to focus your attention on. You may benefit from exercising your creativity, getting lost in a novel, or engaging in activities that require your concentration. Even a few minutes spent focused on an enjoyable task today may help you let go of those thoughts that were causing you distress and worry.

When your mind won't cease turning, focusing your attention wholeheartedly on an activity you enjoy can help reduce feelings of anxiety and quiet the mind. Our worries tend to be multilayered and can take our thoughts in many directions. Engaging in an entertaining pastime narrows the range of your thinking simply by giving you a focal point upon which to concentrate your mental energies. Your thoughts no longer have free reign to travel where they will, and your attention is fixed on the task at hand. As you enjoy yourself, the tension you were experiencing dissolves and the pleasure you experience is doubled. Turning your attention to an enjoyable activity today will help you achieve a state of blissful calm.
