What are some strategies to calm yourself?

FallingSapphire December 30th, 2023

for myself listening to music, going on walks, reading/writing, using fidgets/stress toys. Laying down, deep breathing. Counting down from 100 (or any number in whatever order)

@FallingSapphire

Ooh all of these are quite relatable for me too. Isolating myself from the stressful situation and/ or taking time for myself to center helps me calm down, also listening to music and taking a walk!😊

I do this too. Just finding a quiet corner or space and try to ground myself. Whether that is through breathing exercises or just focusing on a repetitive sound.

@FallingSapphire Accepting the anxiety is there, I just let it be, take some deep breaths, and get back to work.

Reading a book;

Going to ride on an empty train to watch people live and move, while i'm just sitting;

Watching some cool shows;

Something to bring me back dopamine, overally. :)
