3 Ways To Beat Fear & Anxiety

2/9/2021

1)  Use logic to slow the anxiety spiral and then find a helper.

Many times putting your irrational fears into words and having a friend talk you through them can help reduce their power.  Shedding light on darkness can make a huge difference.  


2)  Don’t forget your physical body

Sometimes anxiety can show up as physical symptoms. Think headaches, stomach aches, or chest tightness.  Take care of your mind and your body by getting regular exercise and practicing mindfulness or breathing techniques and acupuncture.  Even when you aren’t experiencing anxiety symptoms practicing these techniques on a regular basis can make managing the symptoms easier when they do show up.


3) Check your sleep

Not enough sleep or poor quality sleep can be an anxiety trigger for a lot of people.  Use an evening routine to calm your body down in the evenings to prepare for sleep.   Avoid screens or social media surfing 2 hours before bedtime.  Try to go to sleep at the same time every night.  Keep your bedroom dark, cool and quiet.
