Anxious to calm: Always be clear that you do not have a medical reason for anxiety (like elevated thyroid, adrenal problems). Many techniques for calming anxiety, ranging from formal biofeedback, use at home of the heart rate variability software (mccraty and heart math), learn eft, learn meditaion, tai chi, chi gong, yoga, see practitioner that uses nes mind programs, lots of others.

Anxiety: If you can find a quiet place - do so. Breath in slowly ; deeply through your nostrils. Fill your lungs with air (but not to the point of discomfort). Hold for a count of five then slowly begin to exhale through an open mouth. Repeat at least 12 times, longer if you need to. If you haven't been assessed for your panic/ anxiety - that would be prudent. Take care.
