Recognizing Anxiety Symptoms and Coping Techniques
When experiencing anxiety, symptoms may differ among individuals. For example, with sweaty palms and a quick, loud mind, one might recognize anxiety, while another might feel bodily stiffness. Techniques like focusing on the present moment through exercises such as the 333 technique, body scans, and breathwork can help in managing anxiety. These practices aim to ground individuals in the present, regulate the nervous system, and provide a sense of safety.
