Deep breathing You can watch from my you tube videos. Belly breathing Mindful breathing exercise Inhale from nose for four seconds when you inhale your stomach should come out and it should inflate .. hold the breath for 2-3 seconds and then exhale from your mouth slowly for 4 seconds like you are blowing a candle that time your stomach should go in and body will relax. Continue to focus on your breath. Whatever your thoughts are or anxiety . Just keep focus on the breath. Don’t give any importance to the thoughts it will make it less powerful and it will go away. You will be more calm and composed.

I understand your predicament and would like to make a few suggestions that could help you. Kindly consult a pulmonologist in case the difficulty persists. St. Johns medical college has a pulmonology department that conducts OPDs. I want you to know that with awareness of how the mind works and how thoughts are generated, you will get better at dealing with them and thereby overcome the challenges you are facing right now. I want you to know that you are capable of doing this and can successfully deal with them. Understanding the nature of the mind and how thoughts are generated will help you deal with them. The nature of the Mind, which in simple terms we experience as thoughts, is such that, it will keep shifting its focus from one object/topic/event to another. Ii always needs something to hold on to. Another important characteristic of the Mind is this - You will either have thoughts about the past or the future. This will keep alternating. Try thinking about the present moment - you will see that the Mind and 'Now' can never coexist. The Mind has 3 states in general. Sometimes, you may find yourself having very positive, inspiring thoughts. During other times, you may find yourself very emotional, or all charged for action. Whereas during other times, you may feel very lethargic, dull or lazy. These states will keep alternating. Having understood the nature of the mind, the first step towards mental health is to become aware of your thoughts. Learning to be an observer of your thoughts, learning to observe them from a distance like clouds passing in the sky. The next step is knowing that you have the power to choose which thought you wish to focus on and act on and exercising that power. With practice, you will have better mastery over this process. Having negative, compulsive thoughts is something that plagues everybody from time to time. Trust me, even if everything was perfect, you will still find something to be obsessed and concerned about. Tension or anxiety is a physiological response which is again part of being human. It is normal to have such thoughts about any situation. As mentioned above, with practice, you will learn to focus and entertain only those thoughts are healthy enough to be acted upon. Whenever you feel overwhelmed by thoughts, just bring your focus back to your breath and take a few relaxing breaths. You will automatically be able to focus on the task at hand and do what is required. Whatever you feed your mind through your sense organs will be replayed to you as thoughts. Be conscious of this. Take care of the content you feed your mind - the kind of books you read, the websites you visit, the kind of music you listen to, the kind of food you eat, the kind of company you keep ( "You are an average of five people you spend most of your time with" ) When you consciously make an effort to feed your mind positive, inspiring, motivational content and let go of limiting negative beliefs, i.e., stop listening to them and not allowing them to dictate the way you behave - new thinking patterns develop, you begin to explore new positive ways to respond to situations, the world responds to a new you, the feedback you receive changes - thus leading to new healthy beliefs taking shape and the cycle repeats. The next time you experience anxious thoughts, deal with it from the standpoint of knowing that it shall pass. Observe your bodily sensations without judging them as threatening. Know that it shall pass. Keep focusing on breathing slowly through it. Here is a breathing exercise that will help you rest and relax better : Inhale to a count of four - hold your breath to a count of four - exhale to a count of eight. Repeat this ten times just before lying down to sleep in the night and also before you start your routine in the morning. Reflect on the following and write your answers down. Ask yourself : Where would I like to see myself ten years from now? What should I do today to reach there ten years from now? What would I do if I knew I wouldn't fail? What would I do if I weren't afraid? Write. Delete. Rewrite. Do this until you know you have been truly honest with yourself. No matter how impossible the answers might seem, I want you to know that you can and will make them possible. Take the first step. The rest will follow. A beautiful future awaits you. Take ownership of every moment, take responsibility for it and confidently work towards your dreams and aspirations. One day you will thank these dark moments for being the fuel for your success. Please set aside time for exercise daily and make sure you eat healthy every time. Our challenges that seem to threaten our very existence are the ones that serve as fuel for our evolution. Have faith in yourself. You are capable of dealing with this. You are going to do just fine. Take care.
