Anxiety makes you numb. It steals your ability to think clearly and disconnects you from your inner calm.

That’s where spirituality can help. It doesn’t eliminate problems, but it helps you face them with clarity and strength.

Anxiety often arises when the mind dwells too much on the past or worries about the future. Spirituality anchors you in the now—it gives meaning to pain and infuses strength within you.

It helps you see the bigger picture, nurturing compassion towards yourself and kindness towards others. As if it gently says, “Why are you so worried? The worst can happen to anyone, but only for a while. Every difficult phase arrives, and every difficult phase eventually fades.”

You are bigger than your pain, and pain, when faced with strength, can even become transformative. Something meaningful often follows suffering—you just need the patience to move through it.

So the next time you feel anxious or low, take a deep breath. Close your eyes and reflect on the smallness of your problems in the vastness of life. Think about the strength that has carried you this far, and focus on what you can do right now with that strength to face your situation.

Life is not simple. To live is to face challenges—and how you face them defines your journey. Keep going, till the very end.
