Anxiety is often seen as a condition of the mind - as that's where the noisy anxious thoughts live. 

However, anxiety has a genuine and substantial physical impact on the entire body including increased heart rate, tense muscles, rapid/shallow breathing, decreased digestion and so much more! 

As anxiety is very challenging to live with, we often reach for an external antidote - medication, treatments, supplements etc. 

And yes, these are valid and can certainly help, but only to a certain extent. 

There is one simple thing we can do every single day to help reduce physical symptoms of anxiety but its so easy most people don't believe this - until they try it! 

This simple technique will slow down your racing heart, calm your anxious mind and help bring you back into the present moment. 

Want to know what it is?

A technique called Extend Your Exhale. 

All you need to do is gently close your mouth, inhale for 3 seconds and exhale for 4 seconds (remember to make your exhale as soft, and calm and slow as possible. Do this for 5 minutes and see how you feel. 

If you'd like some help with this technique, I've created a FREE Alleviate Anxiety mini video which you can download, save and use anytime, any where (to reduce anxiety in minutes) - sign up in the orange FREE Anxiety Support bar at the top of the page.
