Deep breathing and meditation can effectively treat anxiety disorders. As anxiety begins to build, tension grips the muscles and restricts breathing. This subliminally creates a feeling of suffocation, which increases anxiety even more. When stress begins to overwhelm you, take several long, deep breaths. Relax the shoulders and straighten the posture. Practicing simple meditations, such as momentarily focusing the mind on a pleasant image, along with deep breathing, is proven to reduce anxiety as well or better than pharmaceuticals.
