  2. 9 Techniques to get peace of Mind

  3. Awareness: • This is the step most people skip. Why? Because it feels like we already know the answer. You probably already think you know what makes you anxious. • But sometimes the situations, physical signs and emotions that accompany anxiety aren’t as obvious as you might think. So try keeping a kind of ‘anxiety journal’, whether real or virtual. When do you feel anxious and what are the physical signs of anxiety? • Sometimes this stage on its own is enough to help people with their anxiety. As I never tire of saying, especially in the area of habits, self-awareness is the first step to change.

  4. 2. Breathing: • If you’ve been reading PsyBlog for a while you’ll know all about how both mind and body each feed back to the other. For example, standing confidently makes people feel more confident. Meditation Techniques doesn’t just • affect body, body also affects mind. • It’s the same with anxiety: taking conscious control of breathing sends a message back to the mind. • So, when you’re anxious, which is often accompanied by shallow, quick breathing, try changing it to relaxed breathing, which is usually slower and deeper. You can count slowly while breathing in and out and try putting your hand on your stomach and feeling the breath moving in and out. • In addition, adopt whatever bodily positions you associate with being relaxed.

  5. 3. Calming thoughts: • It’s all very well saying: “Think calming thoughts”, but who can think of any calming thoughts when stressful situations are approaching and the heart is pumping? • The key is to get your calming thoughts ready in advance. They could be as simple as “Calm down!” but they need to be things that you personally believe in for them to be most effective. It’s about finding what form of words or thoughts is right for you. 4. Increase activity: It might seem strange to say that the answer to anxiety is more activities, as we tend to think the answer to anxiety is relaxation and that involves doing less. But, when unoccupied, the mind wanders, often to anxieties; whereas when engaged with an activity we enjoy, we feel better.

  6. 5. Sleep skills: Often when people are anxious they have problems sleeping. Sometimes when you feel anxious there’s nothing worse than lying in bed, in the dark, with only your own thoughts to occupy your attention. And lack of sleep leads to anxiety about sleeping which can lead, paradoxically, to worse sleep. 6.Give yourself time: Take all the time you need. Emotional healing is a process; don’t rush yourself through it. Don’t let others force you through it either. Moving on doesn’t take a day; it takes lots of little steps to be able to break free of your broken past and your wounded self. Take today breath by breath, one step at a time. Never let trouble from the past make you feel like you have a bad life now.

  7. 7. Ease your expectations: Life is under no obligation to give you exactly what you expect. Whatever it is you’re seeking will rarely ever come in the form you’re expecting. Don’t miss the silver lining because you were expecting gold. You must see and accept things as they are instead of as you hoped, wished, or expected them to be. Just because it didn’t turn out like you had envisioned, doesn’t mean it isn’t exactly what you need to get to where you ultimately want to go. 8. Let go of things you don’t control: You make plans to go outside with friends. But at the last minute, it starts raining. What’s your reaction? Some people upset and angry, and find the nearest person and start complaining to them. “It’s not FAIR that it’s raining.

  8. 9. Walk to a window, look outside, and take a single deep breath: • I got this technique from the Zen master Mary Jaksch. Just walk to a window, look outside, and then take a single deep breath, focusing only on that breath and nothing else in the whole world. This technique sounds extremely simple, but you won’t believe how much it can instantaneously increase your peace of mind. • And because this is the last tip, you can try it immediately when you finish reading this blog post. Just walk to a window, look outside, and take a single deep breath, focusing on the air going in and out of your lungs, and nothing else.
