Coping strategies that may help
Deep Breathing
Focus on your breath by inhaling deeply through your nose and exhaling slowly through your mouth. This can help calm your body and mind.
Grounding Techniques
Use your senses to connect with the present moment. Identify things you can see, hear, or touch around you to help reduce anxiety.
Progressive Muscle Relaxation
Tense and then relax each muscle group in your body, starting from your toes and moving up to your head. This can relieve physical tension.
Mindfulness Meditation
Engage in mindfulness exercises to help you stay present and reduce racing thoughts. Apps and guided meditations can be useful.
