How can I manage my exam anxiety effectively?

There are several strategies you can use to manage exam anxiety. Would you like to hear about relaxation techniques or study tips first?

I think relaxation techniques would be helpful.

Great choice! Deep breathing exercises, mindfulness meditation, and progressive muscle relaxation can be very effective. Would you like a step-by-step guide on any of these?

Yes, please provide a guide for deep breathing exercises.

Sure! Start by finding a comfortable position. Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four, hold for four, and exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of six. Repeat this for a few minutes.

That sounds helpful! How often should I practice this?

It's best to practice deep breathing exercises daily, especially before studying or taking an exam. This will help you build a habit and reduce anxiety over time.
