擔心是一種像抽煙喝酒一樣需要戒的壞習慣
Like smoking and drinking, worry is the bad habit you got to kick
擔心是一種幻象，但是數千萬人卻成為這幻象的階下囚
Worrying is a illusion, it exists only in your mind but millions are becoming a prisoners of this illusion.
在人類大腦演化的過程中，我們發展了記憶及幻想未來的能力，因為這想像力，我們學會推測，推演各種不同的可能性。
但此推測的能力有一副產品 "擔心憂慮" ，此副產品把你所有的注意力放在那負面的推測結果。但是這副產品與你真實的外在世界是毫無關連的，它只存在你的心智裏。擔心是一種錯用心智的自殘行為。
At some point of the human evolution, our brain develops this capacity to remember the past and fantasize the future. Hence we learned to predict, calculate all possible outcomes. However this capability comes with a by-product called “worrying”. Worrying is focusing your thoughts solely on the negative outcome. BUT worrying has nothing to do with your outside world. It only exists in your mind, it’s self-inflicting behavior due to the misuse of the mind.
但是你可憐的身體及生理運作，卻搞不消楚這到底是真的還是假的。身體對於這幻想的反應會作出與真實狀況一樣的反應。求生機能啟動，壓力荷爾蒙分泌，造成高血壓，胃潰瘍，失眠及癌症等。
However your body and physiology can’t differentiate the self-inflicting thoughts and react as it’s under the real situation. It kicks it the “fight or flight” response and stress hormone is released causing high blood pressure, ulcer, insomnia and even cancer.
活在當下是這問題的解藥，當下的覺知會讓你心智的運作更清明，有效益並且更有創造力。瑜珈的練習一次又一次的把你拉回當下。你會練習你觀察心智的運作，停 止那強迫性的思考 練習如何把它從過去及未來的牢房中 解放出來。你會驚訝的以第三者的身份，發現你的世界是完全建立在你的想法上。
Living at the presence is the key to see the truth. Present moment awareness will clarify your mind making it more efficient, effective and creative. The practice of Yoga will teach you how to bring your awareness to the present again and again. You will observe how the mind works and stop that obsessive thinking. You will learn how to free yourself from the past and future. You will be surprised to observe and see that your sense of the world is mainly created by your thought.
借用Ekhart Tolle 的一句話，”擔心把自己偽裝成一個很重要的東西，但實際上沒有任何的用途！”
＂Worry pretends to be necessary but serves no useful purpose “ Ekhart Tolle
