Here's how it works -----> http://www.newsweek.com/career/weirdest-stress-reducer-ever-totally-works
- Don't be afraid to tell your professor that you feel uncomfortable and would like to take a break. Don't feel obliged to stay in class because there is nothing worse than feeling terrible in front of a group of people who may not understand.
- Listen to music
Studies show that music lowers anxiety levels, blood pressure and heart rate.

- Get organised!
This includes everything from sorting out your wardrobe, decluttering, going under your bed (dun, dun dunnnnnnn), creating a schedule and tidying up.
Suggestion:
If anxiety or panic attacks happen regularly, go to the school nurse. They will be able to give you advice.

This is a great topic to discuss. It's important to take care of yourself and figure out how to overcome anxiety (still working on that myself). These are some great tips. I love yoga and it really can make you feel better. Exercise in general is a nice mood lifter because of endorphins.
ReplyDeleteI agree! I hope you find a way to personally manage anxiety x
