If you’ve been feeling a bit jittery lately, you may be experiencing more than the aftereffects of an extra latte.

The economy is in a downturn and millions of homes are in foreclosure. A credit crunch is crimping our style, as are rising food and fuel prices. Meanwhile, the job market is going south...literally!

What’s a hard-working American to do?

The first thing, Dr. Tim Ursiny says, is not to worry.

It may seem counterintuitive, but according to “Dr. Tim,” worrying typically results in more harm than good.

That’s because most people don’t understand the differences between “good worrying,” which leads to positive change, and “bad worrying,” which only produces more stress, anxiety, indecision and conflict with those around you.

Knowing the difference between meaningful thought and repetitive, fearful rumination can give you the frame of mind to make powerful decisions about your money when times are hard, Dr. Tim says.

On your show, he will discuss the 5 techniques everyone can use to eliminate needless worry.
He will also:

• Discuss America’s “culture of fear.”

• Advocate “embracing ambiguity” as a stress reducer.

• Answer questions about personal financial worries.
