Take deep breath and walk for a while. Listening calm music and close my eyes. Usually calming, relaxing podcast are very helpful.

In my opinion, the best way to cure anxiety is to just take a deep breath. We feel tense and uneasy when were anxious and sometimes we just need to calm down and breathe.

I'm unsure of any natural cures, but you can alleviate anxiety through diaphragmatic breathing, self assessment, and changing your thought process. If you're experiencing an onset of a panic attacks, you can count the wrinkles on your palm, which works in many cases.

Whenever I feel anxious, I always have a tea of cup or exercise. It makes me more relaxed. And if you're gonna try drinking tea yourself, I recommend chamomile tea.

Practicing deep breathing techniques to calm yourself down, and to take a step backwards in thinking and see how the situation would affect you in the long run.

I think a good way for curing anxiety is to confront the human with the anxiety. Maybe its hard but if you train to confront you with your anxietys you adapt and with every traing you push your anxiety one step more away from your mind.

Personally, I just open up a word doc and type. Don't stop typing even if it's gibberish or repetitive don't stop typing tell the word doc what's happening and how you feel. Type a page or two or three or how ever many you need to just get it out. Then delete, along with the anxiety.

The best natural way I personally find for curing anxiety is by using a particular scent. I spent a long while choosing a scent that I found lovely and then made sure I associated that with positive things. Then whenever I felt anxious, i would use that scent to remind me of the good things and try and ease the anxiety.

I have heard that eating a handful of cashew peanuts has the same affect on the body as an antidepressant medication. I am not sure that it works. I have no tried it yet. :)
