Trick your brain into calm
- Become aware of your safety and breathing. Your fight or flight response may be in overdrive.
- Take note of five things you can see, four things you can hear, three things you can touch, two things you can smell, and one thing you can taste.
- Quiet your fears by visualizing a stream flowing past you. Each time a thought pops into your head, imagine the thought as a leaf on the stream.
