How to relax. Any ideas?!

Question

Hey guys do you have any ideas on how to calm yourself down when you’re feeling overwhelmed or scared. Any yoga or breathing techniques to relax the brain and yourself?!

Answer

I have really bad anxiety attacks and started going to a therapist. She told me whenever I have one to take a deep breathe and then hold my breath for five seconds and then exhale. And I do that for a minute or two and I get so focused on my breathing that my attack goes away. She also said to use my senses so touch things and think about what they feel like (if it’s soft, feels rough, etc). It’s helped me because it distracts me until my anxiety attack ends. It doesn’t work for everyone but it helps me and it could maybe work for you to. :)
