One thing that helps me manage my anxiety is.....
It helps to just rationalise logical statements to myself that remind me what Im concerned about wont matter in the grand scheme of things. I imagine the worst case scenario then ask myself whatll realistically happen After that? and if i keep asking myself then what? My body remembers it will still survive and flourish and be able to generate love even if the worst things i fear happen.
I like to listen to ASMR videos to help me relax and calm, I also like to read as well which helps me a lot
One thing that helps me manage my anxiety is connecting with other people. If I start to overthink or over analyze, it's usually when I'm by myself. Around others, my thoughts make more sense and I realize I'm not as horrible of a person as my anxiety makes me want to believe.
to not cling to my thoughts nor run away from them and fight them off ( because they fight back). Tpo just allow it all to be and center my prescene and awarness someplace within my core/ Higher Self Energy/ Inner Being/Spirit/Inner Calmness.
I ask myself what would help. Different answers every time. Recently, Ive been babying myself with tea, wrapping in a weighted blanket, and cuddling a stuffed animal. Sometimes all at the same time. :)
using my mantras, distraction
Music. I play and humm songs when I'm anxious to stop my thoughts.
