**Preferably non-substance/drug
I’ll share a couple:
4 7 8 breathing
ears underwater
music/audio at slower speed (0.6-0.9)
Let’s hear em. I might want to do a series for various conditions or states so stay tuned and lets crowd-source this shit, enough of the “read my new/old 400pg tome for an introduction”. 🤮 Distill
For short term relief/emotional regulation my counsellor taught me TIPP Temperature - cold water/ice/object to lower heart rate Intense exercise - a few mins of jumping jacks/running on the spot/shaking it off Paced breathing/box breathing Paired muscle relaxation - tense and relax different muscle groups
When I’m anxious I tend to get overactive so the ones that help me most are splashing cold water on my face and the intense exercise.
Anxiety during bedtime or if I have time during the day, ASMR or a well paced peaceful podcast also do the trick.
I think I will try the slower speed music, that sounds interesting.
