If you believe you hear hoof beats, think a horse... not a zebra. The medical field has been known to use this when trying to diagnose, but its a good maxim to keep in mind when dealing with anxious thoughts. So often we can jump to the worst case scenario - i.e. the exotic or awful zebra, vs. the normal or calm horse (or even, think that there are hoof beats - when in reality, a horse isnt even in the vicinity). Recalling this idea is one way we can work on keeping anxious thoughts corralled!
