Feeling anxious? Try this quick mind reset

Ayushi Bisht

Anxiety can hit at any moment but you can calm yourself instantly with just a few simple steps.

Close your eyes and take a deep breath.

Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, exhale for 6.

Notice the present—sounds, sights, and sensations around you.

Gently tense and release each muscle from head to toe.

Repeat a calming word or phrase silently.

Visualize a safe, peaceful place in your mind.
