Constant tension, anxiety about an event, severe stress - all this can lead to a state of irritability and nervousness, when any trifle becomes a major problem, and the ability to control your negative emotions is lost. To relieve nervousness, you can resort to using certain methods.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, make your own plan of action. The best way to deal with anxiety and nervousness is to gather information. Prepare a piece of paper and a pen, and then write down everything you are worried about. After that, look at the resulting list and draw up an action plan for each item. For example, if you have lost your job and are afraid of not paying your bills, then you should try to collect information about the possibility of extending a bank loan or find another job in the same organization.
Step 2
Give yourself the opportunity to dream up. Get into a comfortable position, turn off all external stimuli, and, closing your eyes, imagine that you are relaxing on a sandy beach on a desert island. Breathe as smoothly as possible, think about how you enjoy the peace and quiet, watching the ocean. Soon you will calm down, the heat of nervousness will subside, and you will feel that you can think and act sensibly again.
Step 3
Try not to take on too many responsibilities. If you have more than 20 tasks and household chores in your daily routine, then try to leave only the most important things that do not require delay. You may need to shorten your workday, share household chores with your loved ones, or hire a housekeeper.
Step 4
Always leave plenty of time for fun. Mark the days for which you plan to have fun and rest from your daily routine on the calendar, do not let anyone or anything interfere with this schedule.
Step 5
After exerting yourself for a long time during the day, create a relaxing and uplifting microclimate with rose, geranium or neroli essential oils. A foot bath or a light massage of the lower legs using essential oils of lavender, orange and thyme has a good soothing effect.
Step 6
Exercise is one of the best ways to relieve anxiety and tension. If you have had a very busy day and after its end you feel extremely severe emotional exhaustion and fatigue, sign up for a gym or at least take a walk on foot.
