Find out why: Anxiety can be caused by many things, and the key is to find out which ones are the triggers. Simple meditation can help, and counseling might be of benefit. Nutritional problems can be a cause, so an evaluation can be of help to determine any disruptions. Neurotransmitter therapy using the neuroresearch protocol is very effective. A simple otc agent is l-theanine, which causes no drowsiness.

Stay active: Exercise is a great way to relieve stress. Your body releases endorphins during exercise, which can help you feel calm. If you exercise 30 - 60 minutes a day, your stress levels can improve. When stressed, take 5 slow, deep breaths with your eyes closed, then roll your shoulders forward 5 times, then back 5 times. This will slow your heart rate and release tension in your neck and shoulders.

Therapy and exercise: Psychotherapy can unearth issues that are contributing to the anxiety. And this understanding can have a more lasting effect in diminishing anxieties. Improve social networks and talking to solid friends can help. Additionally, a regular exercise regimen and natural, healthy mindful eating is wise. At night, drinking herbal teas with chamomile can help. Yoga and meditation on a regular basis too.

Try a few of these: Yoga (learn yoga breathing, which is calming); meditation, over a koan or just quieting your mind, 20 minutes two times a day, consistently; take walks or do aerobic exercises; cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt) which is considered the most effective short term intervention for anxiety; if you want to really understand your deeper causes of anxiety, try psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Therapy?: Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as anxiety or depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.
