What's the best tip to calm down?

Focusing on your breathing and speak out loud to yourself saying everything is going to be ok! Sometimes you have to allow yourself to feel through the moment while using positive self talking skills.

Close your eyes and thinks of something that makes you happy. Take deep breaths and count to ten. making sure that you think clearly before reacting impulsively.

Trying to calm down in a stressful situation can be challenging. It is important to begin by focusing on breathing. If you can control your breathing, you can begin to control your thoughts. Inhale for a count of four, hold it for a count of four, exhale for a count of four, and hold for a count of four. Repeat this as often as you need to calm down. Your breath will help move you from an emotional mind into a wise mind where you can make rational decisions and interpret the world from a more reasonable lens.

Whenever I am feeling the opposite of calm and I need to calm down, I try to focus on my breathing. I try to take deep breaths and count to ten. Sometimes, I practice taking a deep breath and then holding it for a couple of seconds before I release my breath. Also, whenever I feel myself needing to calm down, I like to try and distract myself by looking at my surroundings and I challenge myself to look around and notice at least one thing I never noticed before.

You should always surround yourself in a peaceful environment, either somewhere where it is silent or listen to relaxing music in order to drown out the background noise. You want to take deep breaths and focus on your emotions. Imagine your heart rate slowing down, and imaging your anxiety or anger fading away as your heart slows and your breathing becomes deeper. I find this always helps.

Take a deep breath for 7 seconds and release it for 4 seconds that is helpful Or else start counting backwards from 10-1

With anxiety, anxious breathing is a huge factor which affects how we’re feeling at the present. A way in which I have discovered to help chill out is ‘calm breathing’ Here are a few steps to try and follow; 1 – Sit or lie down comfortably. Close your eyes if you wish. 2 – Breathe slowly and steadily in through the nose for a count of 4 seconds. 3 – Hold your breath in for a count of 2 seconds. 4- Breathe out slowly and steadily through your mouth for a count of 4 seconds. 5 – Repeat this for a few minutes. Calm breathing is extremely useful in changing the way we feel. When we breathe, we take in oxygen that is used by our body, which creates carbon dioxide which we breathe out. When we are breathing regularly these two levels are balanced. But when we are anxious breathing, out breathing rate increases. We take in more oxygen and breathe in more carbon dioxide than usual; however the body isn’t working any harder than it would (for example, when exercising) and so there isn’t any extra carbon dioxide being produced and we’re breathing in extra oxygen. Calm breathing helps to regulate this, for any more information please do feel free to contact me 

Focus on your breathing, imagine the process of breathing that's happening in your body. You can also talk to someone or go out in nature. You can also name 5 things you see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 things you can taste. Focusing on that can help you to calm down.

Breathe. Close your eyes and imagine you are in an open space feel yourself inhale and exhale. FOcus on that feeling.

In my experience, one of the most important steps to calming down is just recognising that you're experiencing anxiety or panic in the first place. Once you've acknowledged it, it's much easier to focus on calming down. Deep, slow, and purposeful breaths have always helped me once I was aware that I needed to calm myself. Closing your eyes and gently repeating that it's ok to yourself either out loud or in your head can also be very helpful. These are just my personal experiences though, and it's ok if these don't work for you! Different things work for different people c:
