Grounding exercise for reducing anxiety

Take a few slow deep breaths.

Put your hand on your lower stomach and see if you can breath deep enough for your abdomen to rise and fall as you breath (that’s your diaphragm).

Name  FIVE things you see around you.

Name FOUR things you can touch around you.

Name  THREE things you hear.

Name TWO things you can smell.

Name  ONE thing you can taste.
