Table 4.
Anxious | Cog09 | At the time, several years ago, it was hard to not be anxious; it was hard not to worry and not to fret. I definitely had good days, but more often than not, I would be anxious, worrying, "Oh my gosh, I need to take care of that, what about this? What about that?" |
---|---|---|
Cog15 | Anxious? Oh boy. Never relaxing, never enjoying calm or quiet, because there was always a pounding in my head. There was no such thing as inner peace, nothing. | |
Calm | Cog22 | I found myself feeling a lot calmer afterwards, and just a lot less like possessive of the way I wanted things to turn out, and it's not turning out that way, and I could just deal with it as it was. |
Cog25 | Peaceful and steady and it has to do with walking a lot, like a rhythm that's steady and centered. | |
Cog28 | A sense of inner peace and an absence of fear. |
