Mental Disorders

How to Benefit from Everyday Anxiety

Professor Wendy Suzuki of neural science and psychology at New York University provided tips of emotional regulation to turn everyday anxiety (not necessarily clinical disorders) into something productive. Tip number one is deep breathing, an immediate soothing mechanism. Tip number two is moving your body to get the transformative power for both your cognition and your mood. An exploratory kind of mindset such as distract, or preparation is also encouraged. There is a gift of productivity that comes from anxiety. Mindset is so powerful and can be the difference between being beaten down by anxiety or being able to use that to build your resilience. The secret is to approach every single anxious situation with an activist mindset. Try to make friends with your own anxiety and benefit from it. Source: https://www.npr.org/
