I just showed it to Bill. Love how the color of the water, the animals and the sky are in the same tone. And that one wildebeest caught high in the air in mid-leap. Wow!

Hi Judy, I am glad they help with your anxiety. GAD is somewhat of a catch-all, usually what underlies it is low tolerance of uncertainty. Worry is often driven by an attempt to know there is 100% safety, which of course, is impossible. Accepting uncertainty over time will decrease worry.

The Parent is also considered a Co-dependent which can be supported in and alanon group. These parents are actually dependent on keeping their child or loved one in the stage of addiction to support their own egoes. As you say, do the meditation and remember to take care of yourself. Both of these groups are open to visitors, if covid is not still the barrier
