Control your breathing\nSevere anxiety issues are often associated with poor breathing habits. \n\nExercising your breathing in a way that you can fully control it is one good example of a way to calm yourself. \n\nTake time to slow down and reduce your breathing when you’re having anxiety attacks. \n\nDeep breathing also helps you calm down. \n\nInhaling and exhaling should slow down and re-center your mind. \n\n2. Use the 3-3-3 rule\nWhen your anxiety starts creeping in, look around you and name 3 things you can see. \n\nAfterwhich, determine 3 sounds you hear. \n\nLastly, move 3 parts of your body, say, your fingers, ankle, or arm. \n\nEvery time you feel like your brain is speeding up a hundred miles per hour, this mental technique can bring relief to your mind and bring you back to the present moment. \n\n3. Do anything\nStand up, take a walk, sweep the floor, throw away a piece of trash, or do anything that requires you to move and disrupt your train of thought. \n\nDoing this will help regain a sense of control. \n\nYou can also try practicing meditation. \n\nA mere 10 minutes a day of solitude and positive energy go a long way in calming your nerves. \n\n4. Drink water\nIn case you don\u2019t know, not having enough water can worsen your anxiety symptoms. Dehydration can even cause heart palpitations. \n\nAnd when this happens, it can lead to feelings of panic, further triggering an anxiety attack. \n\nSo, take a breather and drink a large glass of water. \n\nYou may feel better afterward. \n\n5. Write it out\nThe feeling of not knowing why you feel nervous all of a sudden is one of the worst parts of anxiety. \n\nUnfortunately, this happens to tons of people. \n\nIf you have an anxiety attack, writing may help alleviate your nerves. \n\nWriting can be a great method to explore and express how you feel, especially if talking out loud is not doable for you. \n\nIn fact, studies revealed that keeping a journey is a healthy way to deal with negative feelings and anxiety problems. \n\n6. Aromatherapy and essential oils\nEssential oils have been used for centuries to treat several conditions, including anxiety. \n\nThese plant oils can stimulate certain parts of your brain, releasing feel-good chemicals like serotonin. \n\nAs such, they can help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. \n\nEssential oils can also improve your mood and sleep quality. \n\nHave you learned something new from this video? \n\nWhich tricks do you think will do it for you? \n\nShare your thoughts and insights about it below.\n\n\n\n▶ Subscribe to the channel! – https:\/\/goo.gl\/nJ8d6r","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you live with anxiety, life is never easy.
