Thanks! Yea it really helps. I was actually freaking out this morning about concern for fast cars in my neighborhood hurting my family and I found myself unable t breath or focus... then I remembered the words (paraphrasing) of Thich Nhat Hanh:

“you are home. You are safe right now.”

And it helped me to stop worrying about future dangers that I really can fix anyway (without building a speed bump and having the township fine me! Haha).
