it’s almost that time of the year again, so you know what that means
breathing deeply using your gut, do this to manually activate your parasympathetic nervous system and force your body to calm down. the longer you do it, the better it works.
this is especially good at getting a racing heart rate down.
For a long time I wondered why breathing didn't work well for me, and the best advice I've been given is you should practice breathing techniques when you're calm, happy, neutral, or any other situation other than when you're panicked. Because if you ONLY do it when you're already in a bad spot, you start to associate the breathing techniques with the state of panic, and even as you're attempting to activate your PS system your brain is honing in on it being a bad situation. It's a good habit to take a moment to breath whenever you wake up on a nice non-work day, when you're enjoying a nice cup of coffee or tea, when you see a nice sunset...make deep slow belly breathing something you associate with peace, so when you ARE panicking you can capture that calm easier.
everything is a queer metaphor if you have eyes to see
