Diving is one of the best ways to reduce stress and anxiety down to zero. But its not always possible to do it.

Short mediation always nice:)
@ofirenglin Do you use it when stressed or as a preventative? Also is it better when starting a day or ending or mixture of both?

1h bike ride or walk with music I enjoy. Best if you could do it in nature. This is my daily detox.
But if you want something quick, try the 4-7-8 technique.
- Inhale for 4 sec
- Hold breath for 7 sec
- Exhale for 8 sec
- Repeat this 4-5 times
It slows your breathing and heartbeat down and reduces anxiety, also helps you fall asleep faster. Note that you have to practice this for a few days to start to see real benefits.

@luka_vasic I like this one. I think there are various possibilities for a quick breathing technique break. But this one is good :)
@luka_vasic I totally get that. Cycling and nature and music... Sounds sooo good. I haven`t done this in a while. Thanks for bringing it up.
Exercise. Nothing else compares for me.
@brenna_donoghue Anything in particular?
Small walk and listening soft music.
@baishali_gulati Yeah 🥰I did this last night when I took my new dog for a walk, or should I say, he took me for a walk... 😊It was incredible. September night sky, autumn vibes with leaves all over the ground. So soothing. 😇
Communication: with a psychologist, colleagues, friends.
@tetiana_nikolaieva Makes sense. Although, I sometimes struggle with dumping my problems on others. But I have found that articulating my own thoughts and feelings to external source, help me understand them better myself.

Focus on breathing & listening concentrate on the healing frequency music
@pankti_shah_910 Any suggestions on healing music? Do you listen to certain frequencies, instruments, or what works best for you?
@pankti_shah_910 I sometimes listen to them on youtube. Thanks for the suggestion :)

Go Rock Climbing or play squash.
Rock climbing keeps you focussed in the moment by it's very nature.
Squash also keeps you in the moment because of its fast pace and necessary focus on the angles.

Daily walking an hour without phone. Lifting weights four days a week also works.

@vishal_godhwani Thanks for asking :) I forgot to answer my own question.
Anything with music, water and self expression really. I really need to get in touch with my emotions ( cause of stress) to move them through the body and then sooth them. It can be swiming, dancing, singing, talking things out with someone, creating art etc.
