Mindfulness and controlled breathing are simple techniques that may support relaxation during anxious moments. Focus on breathing slowly while paying attention to each inhale and exhale. You can also notice sounds, sights, and physical sensations around you without judging them. Practicing these techniques regularly may make them easier to use when stress increases. Combining mindfulness with adequate sleep, exercise, and healthy routines can provide additional support. If anxiety regularly disrupts your daily life, consider discussing it with a mental-health professional.
