Acknowledgement and action alleviate anxiety. Do they? If and when you happen to be anxious, try it and see. No guarantee, at least not from me. “Alleviate” comes from the same root family of words as “levity,” “levitate,” “lever,” etc., from late Latin alleviat- ‘lightened,’ from the verb alleviare, from Latin allevare, from ad- ‘to’ + levare ‘raise,’ influenced by levis ‘light.’
And I live on Leverett, so have additional alignment to help allay, abate, and assuage anxiety, and its related states. Savor the flow.

Yes, indeed. Well put. I wonder what other actions, attitudes, and even non-a words are also favorable to flourishing, fun, and fulfillment. I sure do enjoy using alliteration. Ah, there: "alliteration alleviates angst."
