What are the most relaxing ways to relieve anxiety?

Do you feel nervous and restless which causes you to sweat badly and feel your heart beating so fast it’s as if you ran a 50k marathon? Well, you may be experiencing a common anxiety disorder. Anxiety is a mental health disorder that makes a person experience an abnormal level of fear, nervousness, and dread. The most common cause of anxiety is stress which is our body’s reaction to a threat or feeling of being overwhelmed and pressured. It is normal for us to experience stress and can be brought about by normal everyday activities such as work deadlines or even watching a scary zombie movie on Netflix. However, an excessive amount of stress can lead to anxiety and affect a person’s overall well-being. Check out anxiety acupuncture for relieving anxiety. 

Being stressed for a long period of time or chronic stress can boost anxiety and may lead to even serious conditions such as depression. With this being said, too much stress isn’t good for you, and dealing with it in a relaxing manner should be a priority. Keeping stress at bay could help in lowering your anxiety level and calm you down. 

Here are some ways you can try to keep your anxiety levels in check:

1. Do Yoga or exercise every day

Aside from keeping your body in good shape, Yoga helps lower stress hormone levels and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. If you are not a fan of doing a downward-facing dog or warrior pose, engaging yourself in an enjoyable exercise such as jogging, biking, or swimming will help you relax.

2. Give acupressure a try

If you want to relieve a simple tension in your body without leaving the comforts of your home, what you need is only the magic of your fingers. Acupressure involves putting pressure on fingers or hands on certain parts of the body which may help alleviate anxiety caused by tension.

If you are experiencing neck tension, use your fingers to find the two divots where your neck muscle is attached. You can then press firmly for 15 seconds to release tension in your neck. However, if you are experiencing chronic neck tension, it is best to consult experts in anxiety acupuncture.

3. Eat a well-balanced healthy diet

Some people tend to relieve their stress and anxiety through food. This is what is commonly known as stress eating. We need to eat to sustain our energy and maintain our bodily functions. However, stress eating tends to result in consuming more ultra-processed foods and added sugar which is bad for your health. 

Eating your comfort food during times of stress is a normal reaction but it may harm your overall health and can potentially make you more stressed. It is important that processed foods should be eaten minimally or avoided altogether and stick with a healthy diet consisting of whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans, fish, and nuts which can help in improving your resiliency to stress and anxiety. Eating well and doing mental health acupuncture can combat any anxiety you may be experiencing.

4. Listen to your favorite music

No matter what kind of music you are into whether it’s a classic ballad, jazz, pop, or even hard-core rock, listening to music has a very calming effect and can instantly brighten up your mood. So, if you think your anxiety level is cranking up, turn on that stereo and let the tunes of your favorite music take away your stress.

5. Call your friendly acupuncturist

Acupuncture is a holistic approach to alleviating symptoms of anxiety and even depression. This thousand-year-old Chinese medicine involves pricking the skin with very thin needles at certain anatomical points of the body to relieve any symptoms that the patient is suffering from. 

In the case of patients suffering from stress, anxiety, or depression, acupuncture stimulates the body’s natural feel-good hormones which in turn reduces the level of cortisol or stress hormones in the body. Not only that this method is a natural way to treat anxiety but also keeps the patient drug-free.

If you are looking for the best acupuncturist in town that is an expert in mental health acupuncture, Marchand Orthopedic Acupuncture is at your service. Call now!
