Brett Eldredge: How He Deals With Anxiety
Brett Eldredge appeared on Today‘s new segment, “Quoted With Hoda,” where he reveals his favorite quote, “Change your thoughts and you can change the world.”
While he admits it’s not his quote, he uses it every day. He says, “I love when I hear quotes from different influential people…just, you know, on the way they look at the world, and makes me look at the world a little differently, it’s a beautiful thing.”
Eldredge admitted to Hoda that he struggles with anxiety. He said, “I started getting into meditation, more to work on myself. I figured out how much we chase our millions of thoughts; we have a day where we have hundreds of thousands of thoughts. You can either chase down those thoughts or you can see them as they are. My life has changed completely different since I started looking at [things] in different ways.”
Brett continued, “As long as you grow and know that change is a good thing, trying to make yourself better—that’s what I’m trying to do. From reading books to going outside when I’m in a tough spot. I’ll hang out with my dog or family or write music. Life has really changed for me in that way.”
