Expose yourself to more sunshine - sunshine helps in releasing chemicals known as ?feel-good-hormones?. More sunshine = more positive hormones = less anxiety. Meditate - meditation is not something elusive anymore; it?s effects have been tested and studies have clearly shown that meditating reduces anxiety and stress to the point where meditative exercises are even used in therapy today. Take deep breaths - if you cannot meditate then at least take some deep, slow, breaths. Anxiety often causes us to breathe shallow and fast. According to the embodiment theory, doing the opposite may then result in opposite feelings. Make a definite plan - create a battle plan to combat your anxiety. Make a very detailed, laid out plan so you create some security for yourself on how you will fight the anxiety. Challenge the anxiety - go outside and leave your comfort zone entirely. Talk to strangers, preach to every passersby, or try some other social anxiety challenges. This will make you realize that all you are afraid of is the fear itself (as clich� as that sounds?). Seek help - there is this huge stereotype that only crazy people go to a therapist, but that couldn?t be further from the truth. If you need help, if you are stressed, or if you are sad about life then why not seek a bit of assistance from someone that can help? Do something more today - when you see yourself grow and progress you can use that as a reference when times are bad. Do something more today that will help you out tomorrow. Create fluctuation in your life - doing the same things you?ve always done will lead to the same things you?ve always gotten. If those things are anxiety and stress then it is time you changed things. Change your environment, your clothes, your hobbies and everything you can. Focus on what you have - become grateful every day. Focus on the things that are going well, the things that you appreciate and the things that make life fun. Of course you can find reasons to be anxious, but you can also always find reasons not to be. Fill your glass - instead of trying to remove the negatives from the glass, add so many positives that it flushes out the negatives. You cannot remove the orange juice once it?s mixed with apple juice, but if you add more apple juice the content will eventually shift that way. Keep your body in top shape - eat healthy, exercise regularly and drink a lot of water. 3 simple ways to get a healthy body, which means 1 less thing to worry about. Remove negative influences from your life - avoid watching the news, trust me, you will still know what is happening in the world, and remove some of your drama friends, you have enough to deal with in your own life that you do not need their constant struggles too. Remember you?ve made it this far - everything you have faced in life you?ve overcome. That is a fact. It may not have gone the way you wanted it to, or the way you thought it would, but sometimes that turned out for the better. You will make it through this too. Improve - improve in your hobbies, your job, yourself, your skills or whatever else you do regularly anyway. Focus on growing and your life will begin to change, showing you that anxiety can change too. Smile - do this forcefully if you have to, but try to find videos, movies or time with your friends so you create more authentic smiles in your life. Every smile is another reason why life is great and why anxiety is meaningless. Let the thoughts go - if you cannot change it, then worrying about it now won?t make a difference. If you can change it, then worrying about it won?t make sense as you will change the cause of your worry. In neither case it is worth holding onto.
