Reduce Your Stress Thanks To These Ideas

If you ever suffer from extreme anxiety or panic attacks, some of the remedies I’m going to tell you about now may well relax you and make you feel a whole lot better. As with all self help treatments, it ultimately comes down to how much you want to change.

My first recommendation is taking up regular exercise and sticking to it. Consistency is the key, not just when you can be bothered.

Okay, here’s the deal. You suffer from anxiety, want to get better but hate exercise. Well, that’s tough basically. If you work out or go for a swim or a cycle four times a week or more I guarantee you will feel better and a whole lot more relaxed. So you owe it to yourself to try it.

Swapping your regular drinks for herbal teas can have a great effect on your mind and your body. The calming effects of Chamomile and Jasmine are well documented and can really help you to relax.

If you are getting yourself all worked up because nothing is working yet, you will just make yourself worse. Ok, so exercise and tea didn’t work, so now try meditation. Seriously, this is a centuries old method of relaxation that has many known benefits and its advocates recommend it to everyone.

My last recommendation is to tap into the power of music. Learn an instrument or simply listen to music. Both are known to greatly reduce stress levels, stimulate your mind and push whatever it is that you are worrying about clean out of your mind.

Now you’ve read through all these strategies, you may be chomping at the bit to get in there and try them. A word of warning, with the exception of the tea, only choose one and stick to it. You need to spend a lot of time doing these techniques, and if you try and do two or three you’ll be stressing out by trying to keep them all going, so only one at a time.

Good luck to you and remember you have taken that important first step by trying to help yourself.
