Many of us have heard a co-worker or friend say, I would love to try a yoga class, but I dont have time for yoga practice. Heres another good one: Im going to start eating better lunches, when I have time to pack one.

The problem is a perceived lack of time, which has become an excuse for bad health habits. As most of us know, you cannot put a price tag on good health, but when your health is poor, you will pay anything for a day without pain or even less pain.

The worst part about a perceived lack of time is that the real issue is lack of control over our bad habits. This is one of many reasons for anxiety. To live a healthier lifestyle will establish control of our habits and reduce anxiety altogether.

Lets look at some strategies for ridding or reducing anxiety in your life. Many people do not write a to do list at the beginning of a day. This entails having the discipline to plan our day. If you do this the night before, and pack a lunch, you will take back control of your day.

When you have a to do list, you will have extra time. This is because you spend less time wondering, What should I do now? Some of the most successful people on this planet have created a habit of time management, which has drastically lowered their anxiety levels.

Lastly, when someone has extra time, the effects of a regular yoga class, a walk, or a healthy lunch, will add up over time.
