If you are feeling overwhelmed with stress or anxiety, try some simple techniques to head it off…
- focus on your breathing and slow it down to a more relaxed pace – to slow your heart rate
- relax your muscles – your jaw, your shoulders, your hands, your pelvic floor and your legs and feet – so you are not holding on to tension in your body
- allow yourself to the time to de-stress and slow down
