All people worry, but everyone has their own reasons for worrying. Someone is afraid to speak in front of the public or go to a meeting with their superiors, and someone even before a date cannot stop trembling in their knees. These conditions can be dealt with, it is only important to remember the simple principles.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is to distract yourself. Just think about something else, get lost in thoughts of how you will spend your weekend or memories of your last vacation. You can even solve geometry problems in your head or plan tomorrow's meeting. Of course, not everyone can complete this option, but it's worth starting with it. The more emotional event comes to your mind, the better. It's easier to dream away into circumstances that are pleasing, not oppressive.
Step 2
During excitement, adrenaline is produced, it forces a person to perform many movements. But you need not just bounce in place or feel shaky, but do a few exercises that will help you cope with the situation. A few squats, push-ups, or bends can make the difference. But you need to understand that they can cause shortness of breath, so you should not do them immediately before the event. Leave yourself 5-7 minutes to restore the rhythm of breathing, put yourself in order.
Step 3
Wiggle your jaw, it helps to make you feel better. Just relax your lower face and move it to the right and left. This will help you cope with your feelings. It is better to do it without witnesses, as it does not look very attractive. The exercise has a great effect on facial expressions, and is highly recommended to actors before going on stage.
Step 4
Water treatments also relieve stress. A contrast shower helps to improve both mental and physical well-being. But if you can't go to the bath, just wet your face and neck. In this case, you can even slightly massage the back of the neck, the area of the upper vertebrae. It is best to do this with wet hands.
Step 5
If anxiety finds you in a crowded place, don't worry, you can deal with it with the help of breathing exercises. Take a very deep breath, try to fill with air to the limit. Then hold your breath for 15 seconds and exhale. You will feel a lightness that will both distract and allow you to discharge. You can repeat it several times, and you can remain without breathing for much longer, but it is important not to disturb the breathing rhythm too much, so as not to attract attention. Breathing in and out deeply also helps. You need to do ten of them in order to get rid of negative experiences and excitement. Just breathe as deeply as possible, and focus on how the air is moving, not on external circumstances.
Step 6
If the excitement is overwhelming, imagine the worst possible course of events. Think about if things are going to be really bad, imagine it in detail. And then start fantasizing how this terrible situation is useful for you. For example, if the excitement before the exam, you might think that you are not passing, but this will give you the opportunity to learn the subject better, get a good grade, and you will definitely not die from this. Awareness of one's own fear, understanding that everything is not so critical, makes it possible to balance the state.
