The Circle Of Control is a therapeutic tool that helps children and adolescents notice things in their lives that are within and outside of their control. If we spend our time and energy on things we CAN control, it helps us manage anxiety and stress better and improves our mental health. On the other hand, if we can recognize the things in our life that we CANNOT control, then it can help us accept them and deal with them better.

3 ways to free yourself from worry and stress about things you can't control:

1) Acceptance
2) Let go
3) Use coping skills
