Anxiety is not merely the feeling of nervousness. It is more than that. It is profound worry, fear, and restlessness that affect a person’s day-to-day activities, and while the symptoms of anxiety may vary for every person, the common symptoms are nervousness, hyperventilation, excessive sweating, trembling, and an increased heart rate. And with this pandemic wreaking havoc and giving us more reasons to stress and worry about, we become more susceptible to mental illnesses, including anxiety.
If you recognize and experience some symptoms of anxiety, you may want to try some of these tips to soothe your it:
- Do Breathing Exercises.
Breathing slowly as you count to ten can help slow down your heart rate and ease hyperventilation. Doing so can also help calm you down.
- Drink Tea.
Tea, specifically chamomile and peppermint tea, is known to help soothe anxiety and induce a feeling of calmness, thanks to its relaxing properties.

Sleep does wonders for your health, and for the anxious, it helps calm the body and mind.
