A Grounding Technique For Anxiety

A Grounding Technique For Anxiety

Anxiety 5, 4, 3, 2,1 is a mindfulness exercise used to cope with, lessen, and manage anxiety. This grounding technique can help increase awareness and decrease intrusive thoughts in moments of heightened anxiety, worry, or panic attacks.

  • Deep, slow, and long breaths are our first priority for achieving a calm state before proceeding to the following steps.

The Method

5: Acknowledge FIVE things we see around us. It could be a pen, a spot on the ceiling, anything in our surroundings.

4: Acknowledge FOUR things we can touch around us. It could be our hair, a pillow, or the ground under our feet. 

3: Acknowledge THREE things we hear.

  • This could be any external sound. If we can hear our belly rumbling that counts! Focus on things we can hear outside of our body.

2: Acknowledge TWO things we can smell

  • If at first we don’t feel like we can smell anything, simply try to sense the subtle fragrance of the air around us, or of our own skin.

Lastly...

Lastly...

1: Acknowledge ONE thing we can taste. What does the inside of our mouth taste like—gum, coffee, or the sandwich from lunch?

  • End this exercise with a long, deep breath.

With these steps, we will be able to get the most out of the moment. Focusing on our senses will help us be more mindful, which will then help us accomplish our tasks and experience success.

  • As a result, we can defeat our anxiety and feel in control of our life.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
