You&#8217;re making that judgment call based on whether (or not) you can actually do something about the source of the worry, says psychologist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drdeborahvinall.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.drdeborahvinall.com\/\">Deborah Vinall, PsyD, LMFT<\/a>, author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/1648766498\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/1648766498\"><em>Gaslighting: A Step-by-Step Recovery Guide to Heal from Emotional Abuse and Build Healthy Relationships<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If the answer to that question is &#8220;no&#8221; because the worry is hypothetical, the worry tree leads you to intentionally and consciously release it, says Dr. Vinall. But if it&#8217;s &#8220;yes,&#8221; and the worry is about a concrete thing in the present, then you move to the next branch of the worry tree, which is to sort the worry as a problem requiring action now or a problem needing action later (which you can schedule for a set time in the future). \u201cIn this way, a worry tree is not just a practical tool but an empowering mindfulness process, as well,\u201d says Dr. Vinall.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;A worry tree is not just a practical tool but an empowering mindfulness process, as well.&#8221; \u2014 Deborah Vinall, PsyD, LMFT, psychologist<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The simple act of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/daily-writing-routine\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/daily-writing-routine\/\">writing down your thoughts<\/a> as part of completing a worry tree can also allow you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8438907\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8438907\/\">view them from a new perspective<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/stopping-obsessive-thoughts\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/stopping-obsessive-thoughts\/\">create some psychological distance from them<\/a>, largely by activating a different side of the brain. \u201cWriting involves the frontal lobe, which is a more logical region of the brain, thus shifting blood flow and energy from being concentrated in the emotional limbic system,\u201d says Dr. Vinall. \u201cThis shift from solely intense emotional activation to bringing online the resources of the logical mind can have a calming effect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seeing your anxious thoughts in writing can then reveal to you certain errors in logic and deductive reasoning, shining a light on worries that may be unreasonable, unfounded, or just plain out of your control.\u00a0\u201c[With the act of writing], we become more aware of cognitive distortions such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/how-stop-catastrophic-thinking\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/how-stop-catastrophic-thinking\/\">catastrophizing<\/a>, jumping to conclusions, personalization, or discounting the positive,\u201d says Dr. Vinall. \u201cThis creates space for neutral or even hopeful, optimistic thoughts to enter and balance out pessimism and worry.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>How to use a worry tree to work through anxious thoughts<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Identify the worry<\/h3>\n<p>This step may seem obvious, but when you\u2019re in a heightened state of stress, identifying the source of your anxious thoughts can be difficult. Take a moment to reflect on your worry and where that worry comes from, including whether there may be a deeper worry underlying it.<\/p>\n<p>If, for example, you&#8217;re worried about why a partner isn&#8217;t responding to your texts, perhaps the deeper worry is that they&#8217;re more concerned with whatever they&#8217;re doing than they are with you. Or, if you&#8217;re worried about an upcoming presentation at work, maybe the deeper worry is about how you&#8217;re perceived by your colleagues.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Distinguish whether this worry is real or hypothetical<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Real worries<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Real worries are rooted in reality and concern real-life events and situations. These worries are actionable and have a direct impact on your life. Take the example of the work presentation: If you feel worried about your ability to deliver, you can take the concrete step of setting aside more time in advance to prepare.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hypothetical worries<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Unlike real worries, hypothetical worries deal with events or situations that simply don\u2019t exist yet or may not ever exist. These are the, \u201cWhat if?\u201d worries. Sometimes they\u2019re the result of allowing your mind to get carried away with negative thoughts, or are the product of an overactive imagination. A few examples: &#8220;What if my plane crashes?&#8221; or &#8220;What if my child gets kidnapped on the way home?&#8221; or &#8220;What if I catch a terrible illness?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While hypothetical worries may not be <em>real<\/em> or rooted in any kind of imminent danger, your mind and body often can\u2019t tell the difference between these and real worries, says holistic psychologist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drscottlyons.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.drscottlyons.com\/\">Scott Lyons, PhD<\/a>, author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Addicted-Drama-Healing-Dependency-Yourself\/dp\/0306925834\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Addicted-Drama-Healing-Dependency-Yourself\/dp\/0306925834\"><em>Addicted to Drama: Healing Dependency on Crisis and Chaos in Yourself and Others<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if it&#8217;s imagined, there&#8217;s still a residue of worry,\u201d says Dr. Lyons. \u201cSo if we just say, \u2018Oh, well, it&#8217;s not actually real, so let&#8217;s just mosey our attention over there, and ignore it\u2019, then there&#8217;s this little puddle of worry that never gets to be addressed. And then over time, it can become a lake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you realize that your worry is hypothetical, it&#8217;s important to make a conscious decision to let the worry go by readjusting your energy toward the things in your life that you *can* control (more on this below).<\/p>\n<h3>3. Take action<\/h3>\n<p>If you discover that your worry is real and actionable, then the next step of the worry tree is to figure out how you might act on it and whether that action can be taken immediately. For example, if your worry is that you left the stove on, and you&#8217;re at home in another room, then you can take immediate action by going into the kitchen to check to see if the stove is indeed on and turning it off if so. Then, if the worry returns, you can take comfort in the fact that you&#8217;ve already taken a concrete action to resolve it.<\/p>\n<p>If you find that the action can&#8217;t be taken immediately, then make a specific plan for when you&#8217;ll do it in the future. Oftentimes, just putting the plan in place can ease some of the anxiety around the worry.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Let go of the worry<\/h3>\n<p>The last step involves making the conscious decision to set the worry aside and place your attention elsewhere. This may be easier to do for real worries around which you were able to either take concrete action or plan to take action; but even for hypothetical worries, the act of identifying and labeling them as such can often help soften their grip on your mind and allow you to release them with more assuredness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor adjunctive support, take a mindfulness meditation class, or use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/free-meditation-apps\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/free-meditation-apps\/\">meditation app<\/a> to practice the art of noticing your thoughts and letting them go,\u201d suggests Dr. Vinall. \u201cA gentle yoga practice and daily breathwork can also support <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/regulate-your-nervous-system\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/regulate-your-nervous-system\/\">re-regulating the nervous system<\/a> from an activated state to that of calm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Because worries are future-oriented (you&#8217;re worried about something that may or may not happen), shifting your focus toward any present activity is a deceivingly simple way to distract yourself and let go of worries in the process. That might look like taking an exercise class, reading, or seeing a movie with a friend\u2014really anything that makes full use of your focus and attention in the present moment.<\/p>\n<p>All of that said, if you&#8217;re finding it tough to detach from worries despite working through a worry tree, or your worries are interfering with your ability to do the things you need or want to do, it&#8217;s a good idea to seek outside support from a mental health professional.<\/p>\n<div class=\"block-thin post-citations mt-[40px] mb-[30px]\" data-module-init=\"main-2020\/post-citations\" data-module-immediate=\"true\">\n<hr class=\"!border-seafoam-dark mb-[24px]\"\/>\n<div class=\"post-citations-content flex flex-col gap-[24px]\">\n<p>Well+Good articles reference scientific, reliable, recent, robust studies to back up the information we share.
