2. Allow Yourself to Express What You Are Feeling

One of the things that you can do is to allow yourself to express what you are feeling. Go with the flow of what you are feeling, do not resist the sensation. Establish a natural flow with your body. You will ride this wave of anxiety, let the feeling happen and do not fight it. Repeat this until your confidence is back, and you realize that your body is able to handle anxiety.

3. Don’t Fight Anxiety but Control it!

Another way for coping with anxiety is when you feel an anxiety attack coming on, you should not try to fight it. Begin by repeating calming phrases on your own slowly and silently. Such phrases could include:

“I will be fine; this is temporary. “
“Everything will be alright.”
“I will get through this!”
” I am Strong and Confident”

Reminding yourself that you and your physical body are not out of control and as you continue this exercise, it will help you get control of your stressful thoughts and actions.

Keep reminding yourself that you can be healed from panic attacks. Remember that this moment will pass, and the more you believe this, the more successful you will be at reducing and perhaps ending your anxiety!

4. Calming Breathing Exercises for Anxiety:

Along with your positive thinking affirmations, you need to also implement some breathing exercises. At times, when you are so stressed out, one tends not to breath in air properly. Deep breathing is a great way to calm yourself down again and slowly get relaxed. You can download breathing exercises for anxiety from itunes through the link below.

Music is calming and soothing, so you may want to keep your favorite songs at hand. Keep your relaxing songs with you at all times. Any electronic device can aid in this.

What can also be helpful is to have a first-aid package for anxiety attack which can be handy in preventing anxiety attack despite where they could happen to be. Things that can be useful to have in such a kit include soothing essential oils, aromatic candles, dark chocolate, a beverage and also a healthy treat such as granola bars and even string cheese or dried out fruit.

7. Contact Information When Symptoms of Panic Attack Occurs

It’s important to remember to have a checklist of phone numbers for people that you really feel secure in contacting when you feel a panic attack starting. Be sure to write down also familiar numbers as it can be hard to remember them in the event of a panic attack.

It could also be valuable to list crisis hotline numbers. Talking to someone can give a feeling of comfort and can also help in case of a panic attack.
