In these hectic days of a huge amount of work, people face anxiety.

If you do not learn to cope with this condition, over time it can negatively affect your health.

Elena Gutyro, an expert on astrology, esotericism and psychology at the site “TUT NOVOSTI”, will tell you how to calm down.

Permission to alarm

Many people worry not only about problems, but also about the fact of having anxiety. To reduce anxiety, it is important to allow yourself to experience unpleasant emotions.

Try asking yourself questions like “Why am I worried?”, “What will happen if I worry?”, “Can I influence the course of events?” Work through these questions and then let them go.

Normalization of breathing

When people are anxious, their breathing is often disturbed. It becomes shallow. To correct the situation, it is important to close your eyes and try to breathe correctly. The inhalation should be deep, and the exhalation should be slow and unhurried.

Proper breathing can calm you down and improve your mood.

Switching

After normalizing your breathing, it is important to switch your attention to pleasant things. This could be a walk, reading your favorite book, or talking to a friend.

Activity

Exercise helps combat stress and anxiety. You can grab some dumbbells, do some push-ups, or dive into an active dance.

By following these tips, you can help yourself cope with anxiety.
