Here are 5 simple steps to keep in mind to lower your anxiety levels daily.
-
Aerobic Exercise
20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise (biking, walking, running) can help increase your energy levels and release nervous energy.
-
Time yourself
It is important to pace yourself. Just like marathon runners don’t sprint all the way, it is important for everyone else to pace as well. These include proper nutrition, hydration, and breaks.
-
Spend Quality time
Being around your significant others, friends, families, and pets can help lower your anxiety.
-
Positive reading
It is important to not over-saturate yourself with negative reading material such as depressing news. It is important to read positive inspirational material.
-
Find laughter
Laughter is all around us. Go to a comedy club, read the comics in the newspaper, watch a video. Laughter is a great way to let go of anxiety.
