Coping strategies that may help
Deep Breathing
Focus on your breath by inhaling slowly through your nose and exhaling through your mouth. This can help ground you and ease anxiety.
Grounding Techniques
Engage your senses by identifying five things you can see, four things you can touch, three things you can hear, two things you can smell, and one thing you can taste.
Progressive Muscle Relaxation
Tense and relax each muscle group in your body, starting from your toes and working up to your head. This can help relieve physical tension.
Mindfulness Meditation
Practice being present in the moment without judgment. This can help reduce anxiety and increase your awareness of feelings as they arise.
