What are some relaxation techniques for anxiety?

I'm feeling really anxious lately. What are some relaxation techniques I can try?

There are several effective relaxation techniques you can try. Have you heard of deep breathing exercises?

No, I haven't. How do I do that?

Deep breathing involves inhaling deeply through your nose, holding for a few seconds, and then exhaling slowly through your mouth. You can repeat this for a few minutes.

That sounds simple enough. Are there any other techniques?

Yes! Progressive muscle relaxation is another great technique. It involves tensing and then relaxing each muscle group in your body.

I’ll definitely give that a try. Thanks for the suggestions!
