Exercises To Calm Your Anxious Thoughts
Exercises to Calm Your Anxious Thoughts
Meditation is a powerful tool for reducing stress, improving focus, and enhancing emotional regulation. Here’s how to get started:
Start small – Try 3-5 minutes per day. Even one minute helps.
Find a quiet spot – Sit or lie down comfortably with minimal distractions.
Focus on your breath – Inhale deeply through your nose, exhale slowly through your mouth.
Notice distractions – When your mind wanders (and it will), gently return to your breath.
Try a guided meditation – Apps like Insight Timer, Calm, or Headspace are great for beginners.
Consistency is key. Meditation is a practice, not a perfection. Just showing up each day is progress.
