Do you always feel the need to double check things?
If you believe in God realize he commands you not to worry. He has you covered. Lean on that as much as you can

I heard it’s best to not focus on the tightness, like if you have it in your head, between the eyes, or anywhere in your body.
Instead if you have tight muscles, for chest or pelvic or back or jaw tightness, try anything whats written below
Try laying down on your side with your knees flexed slightly almost up to 90 degrees. Place a weight on the side of your ribs (it can be high closer to your arm pit or lower down your ribs) place it where you feel like it could help and then tune your attention to the tightness. Use like 15 lbs or higher. If it doesn’t work the first time, keep trying it could take practice but try to relax as fully and completely as you can.
For other areas of tightness too: (you can always mess around and experiment and tune it better to you for what’s written in the post)
It helps to lay down and put a weight on the area of tightness maybe your lower back or even sides of your ribs if that’s where you’re tight and relax completely and fully. If the side of your ribs are tight, lay on your side and rest the weight on your ribs. Also another trick with side tightness or maybe pelvic tightness is try placing it on your hips or higher butt when you lay on your side with your legs slightly folded up to like a lil less than 90 degrees or whatever feels right. (Just lay where it feels right and place the weight wherever it feels good or right to you for everything I mentioned). Tune your attention to the area you’re aiming for. It takes some getting used to, if it doesn’t work at first try again but it probably will work.
If you have a stiff neck or jaw, sit up and move your head in fully circles very very slow over and over again. Do circles as if your stretching your neck in all directions and try to feel and sense every muscle in your neck stretch. You can even open and close your jaw very slightly (starting near the starting of extension movement of the neck) relax the whole time, let the jaw slightly open don’t force it wide. Just try to relax and rest your mind as much as possible too.
This is for if you believe in God. Try telling God you’re going to try to quit for him. And do the best you can. You want to please God, it’s like fasting.
Genuinely curious what are your thoughts
