| Try these quick tips next time you’re feeling anxious |
| Tip: Bookmark these psychologist-backed techniques so you can easily pull them up the next time anxiety strikes! |
| How to relieve anxiety in 10 minutes: |
- Call someone who understands you: Reach out to a loved one who can talk you through what you’re feeling without judgment.
- Write out how you’re feeling: Get those thoughts out of your head and down on paper (or on your phone). Need a journaling prompt? Try talking back to your anxiety as if it’s a person.
- Turn off your phone: This can especially help if you find yourself doomscrolling. Instead, sit with your thoughts and feelings without any form of digital stimulation.
|
| How to relieve anxiety in 5 minutes: |
- Try a relaxation app: Mindfulness apps like Calm or Headspace offer meditations and grounding activities that can lift your mood and reduce stress.
- Listen to a song: Music is powerful! It can help slow your heart rate and lower your blood pressure. Jam out to one of your favorite songs or playlists.
- Get moving: Take 5 minutes to go for a walk, dance, stretch, exercise, or shake your body to try and release any built-up energy.
|
| How to relieve anxiety in 1 minute: |
- Practice belly breathing: Sit down on a comfortable surface, relax your shoulders, place one hand on your chest and one on your stomach, and take deep breaths that fill you up. Release and repeat. (You can also try any of these breathing exercises.)
- Picture your favorite spot in the world: “Going to your happy place” — a real or fictional one — can train your focus on something more pleasant, which can help bring your nervous system back to its rest-and-digest state.
- Look at something that brings you joy: Find a picture of your pet, a loved one, or memories from a fun vacation to spark more positive emotions.

| If these tips don’t work, there are many other options you can explore. Consider working with a therapist to figure out the best coping strategies for you. |

| Best CBD Products for Anxiety |
| Many Healthliners, including myself, recently evaluated over 100 CBD gummies and oils to see which really work, and which fall short on their promise. These 8 products stood out for how they affected anxiety and stress levels. (The one I tested won the title of best overall gummy!) |
