TOP TIPS FOR ANXIETY

I used to suffer from terrible panic attacks and anxiety. Here are a few things that helped me out:

1. Cutting down caffeine. I honestly feel so much better when I reduce my caffeine intake. I sleep better and have more energy, which helps me function better and I feel less anxious.

2. Daily movement. Whether that is my daily walk to Dulwich Park, yoga practice, or a fun HIIT session, I feel so much better when I move. It helps me feel more confident and calm.

3. Breathing techniques (Pranayama or Breath-work). Different breathing techniques can help you to tap into your parasympathetic nervous system (the opposite of fight and flight mode). It can be as simple as breathing in for a count of 4 and exhaling for a count of 8.      You can try it with me now!

Exhale for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,

Get professional help. One of the best ways of coping with anxiety is to ask for help.

If anxiety is disturbing your life or disallows you function normally, contacting a specialist (therapist or your doctor) might be the most helpful step to take
