Try this simple relaxation technique:
Inhale slowly and deeply through your nose. Keep your shoulders relaxed. Your abdomen should expand, and your chest should rise very little.
Exhale slowly through your mouth. Purse your lips slightly, but keep your jaw relaxed.
Repeat. Do it for several minutes until you feel better.
Do it as often as needed. It can be done in any position you are comfortable in.
If you feel increased anxiety while doing this exercise, it might be caused by focusing on your breathing. If that’s the case, stop for now, try it again gradually in a later time.
