We’ll keep it short and sweet so you can take a moment for yourself away from the screen.

1)     Take a break—Put the phone or laptop away for 20min. Give yourself permission to rest your mind and body. Take a shower or go for a walk.

2)     Deep breathing—Close your eyes, take a deep belly breath and hold it for 10 seconds. Release and repeat.

3)     Drink tea—Try something decaffeinated and soothing like peppermint, chamomile or lemon.

That’s it! If the anxiety is persistent for more than 2 weeks, call us. We are here to help.
