Meditation helps because it's good for me to check in and ground myself. But then I get better and forget to do meditation or decide "meh, I'd rather spend the next hour watching Futurama repeats."
Exercise good, need to do more. Scheduling is good. Distraction is good in the short term, and can be good in the long term if one of your worries is that your anxiety will never go away.
Debating my anxiety like a friend works. When I moved to NYC, I thought I'd be overwhelmed, but rethought it as exciting. Returning to the rural life made me worried I'd be bored but rethought it as relaxing.
My wife gets anxious when she's hurt and a goal is to stop her anxiety so we can get an accurate view of her injuries. I should do that with my worries. Remove the anxiety and reassess.
Deep breathing exercises work great. Only time it didn't was when a plane I was on went through a half hour of rough turbulence. My app ended ten minutes in. But in inactivity it's great.
Yoga great. Warrior 2 lets you Invision your self as Spider-Man flinging webs, Like Skywalker moving objects, or a... warrior showing your strength. Then you get to be a tree. And a dog, a cat, and a child.Statistics: Posted by poorpete — Thu Jan 05, 2017 7:15 pm
