How to do Breathing Exercise

"The 5-minute breathing exercise is a simple and effective way to reduce stress. It involves breathing deeply and slowly, focusing on your breath. This helps to calm the mind and body, and it can be done anywhere, at any time.

To do the 5-minute breathing exercise, find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed. Sit or lie down in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. As you inhale, imagine that you are breathing in peace and relaxation. As you exhale, imagine that you are breathing out stress and tension.

Continue breathing deeply and slowly for 5 minutes. If your mind wanders, gently bring it back to your breath. When you are finished, open your eyes and take a few moments to relax.

The 5-minute breathing exercise is a great way to relieve stress and improve your overall well-being. It is simple to learn and do, and it can be done anywhere, at any time. So why not give it a try?"

being stoned fixes everything actually

#all my chronic pain GONE #weed is genuinely the only thing that has ever completely gotten rid of my awful anxiety chest pain #even my meds can’t get rid of all the chest pain #it’s due to tension and no matter what exercises and breathing I try I can’t get rid of it #whoever said anxiety doesn’t have physical symptoms I want u to try sleeping with an elephant on ur chest and see how ‘non-physical’ it is #also dw im being conscious im not addicted and im a careful bean :)#do what makes y’all happy and give weed a try if nothing else works #but be aware it can make anxious ppl more anxious (in my experience this has only happened when i got high off my meds)#mooing #stoned cow tag #tw weed

There's a awkward story on why, exactly, I bought some incense this week, but the point is that I bought amber, oud, and lavender.

Since I hardly ever burn incense (I said it was an awkward story) I just left the boxes over my dresser, thinking that maybe I'd give some to my mom later, as she actually enjoys incense.

But they're good, high grade incense, the sort that will scent the place just from existing there, so I just left them there. It was nice even if made the whole room smell just a little bit like a temple.

It's been 5 days and now I guess I have to admit that not only the combination is pretty comforting, the nice incense sticks are making me sleep through the night.

#I don't usually do relaxing-- not by choice I'm just high-strung and things Do Not Work #I usually have to powercycle my brain through breathing and somatic exercises before I sleep #so it's extremely unexpected that this combination settles me down #especially because dried lavender or essential oil never ever worked for me

musing in the tags about the view two years out from my hysterectomy and the shifting nature of neuropathy. i asked my PT for recommendations/resources pertaining to pain science and that's been a very helpful lenses to have. i'm still not back to normal, will never be unmarked by this experience or return to my pre-op self, but my baseline has been gradually increasing over the last few months, and it feels good to look back on the last two years and say "i have no idea how i managed to function while living with that, but i did!"

#meatsuit renno #chronic blogging #ctxt #at first post-hysto pain was a deep burning ache #and eventually that lessened on my left side and settled in for the long haul on the right #after a couple weeks it had started to feel like a small carnivorous creature scrabbling and gnawing at the inside of my abdomen #nestled into the hollow of my pelvis and reaching up with its raking claws #about 6 months in and the creature still chewed occasionally but had shrunk to the size of a tennis ball under my right incision site #it clamped its jaws down and went to sleep and i perpetually felt like someone had pinched a fold of my insides with a large binder clip #this constant awful twisting tug every time i moved that kept me from straightening up or breathing fully #this is about a year into recovery and my original surgeon has blown off my requests for follow-up treatment three times now #i carried on as best i could. fatigue and brainfog getting worse & worse as the pain wore on unrelentingly #about a year and a half into recovery it worsened again. searing lancing pain like i'd been impaled on a piece of white hot rebar #couldn't hardly move. couldn't think straight. couldn't sleep #finally checked myself into urgent care & then the ER just to try to get someone anyone to take me seriously and help me #finally got a referral to a new surgeon who immediately pinned it as extreme neuropathy #started gabapentin end of december last year and the relief was immediately #i never thought i would welcome the gritted teeth vice grip of my little feral pain creature #but when i felt the molten spike slide out to be replaced once more by its worrying jaws #the intermittent spark and fizzle of that pinching squirming pain was a dramatic improvement #then i started PT in march and slowly so slowly the creature's hungry grip is loosening #it still clamps down occasionally. maybe once every week or two i'll have a day when i just accept #that there will be a horrible little creature chewing on my right side from the inside #but nowadays with the gabapentin doing as much as it can and an exercise routine i must stick to religiously to supplement PT #the pain is more of a little pearl of dark matter shifting around under my skin #it's incredibly dense. the heart of a black hole of disabling agony. all that white hot fury condensed into a slick heavy marble #as i recover some of my strength and energy i can feel my body coating it in nacreous layers to minimize its influence #my hysterectomy was 2 years and 4 days ago today and i feel like i can finally finally say i'm beginning to truly heal #i suspect i'll always carry this pearl in my side like shrapnel. product of damaged nerve tissue that went untreated for far too long #i wish my original surgeon had been more competent more attentive less lazy & indifferent to my pain. but i still don't have any regrets.

does anyone know a magic spell to get rid of paralyzing dread? i can feel my heartbeat in my scalp.

#it's 3am and i've been trying so hard to sleep #i tried to do a little exercise to burn off the adrenaline #i tried breathing exercises too. tried listening to a podcast #but the second i actually try to rest we're back to the chihuahua shaking #does someone just want to come bludgeon me to death #maybe if i blog it into the ether it will go away

#got signed up for group therapy in the psychiatric hospital for six weeks #today was my first day and it was absolutely soul crushing !#like all these people mean so well and everyone is so hopeful but its literally just breathing exercises and self help books #and 'oh have you tried sleeping more'#ive TRIED all of this it doesnt work #i walked the whole way home and was just sobbing my lungs out because i need a fucking EXORCISM !!!! none of this works !!!!!!#i just wanna be able to be safe in my head and i want to stop crawling theres fucking claw marks all over the place because the only reason #im surviving is that its my duty #i need some of the work im doing to actually pay off but so far it hasnt and the world is still a terrifying place #please tell me this is just being a woman in your mid twenties syndrome . please tell me it'll pass

everything is back on its normal course, i always get shift as the months turn colder from bingeing 2 restricting and more anxious and more paranoid due 2 that except this time i have the weight of knowing i Was Better anxiety-wise even just a little bit. i wonder why i feel so bad and then i remember i went from going to therapy every single week & then the connections program everyday n getting paid and being given Hope for a future to losing it all and going right back to being fully isolated irl

#as the focus changes my anxiety always gets worse this time of year #my sh always gets worse #i should feel comfortable in it #but that one little variable of the fact i WAS better is beating my ass #literally the only thing keeping me held up is my bf's existence #im too old i lost my coverage 2 be able to afford therapy weekly and then even the monthly one bc my mom decided to hate them #i lost speed in the job search #i dont remember anything they taught us or the confidence of being all together in that group n finally kinda fitting in #we were all fuckd up but it was fine they were helping us #but now its all gone its so far gone i can barely remember #and im back 2 being useless #and alone irl #ive been getting more n more dizzy too o(-<#i was just sitting n my exercise machine started moving w my breath like it was breathing too #my stomach n my chest hurt so bad too #i just want 2 sleep

Almost fell asleep at rehab 😁✌️

#the stretching and breathing and consciousness exercises made me so drowsy it was just what i needed #i felt myself sinking into sleep right as our instructor told us time was up #i need to buy one of those firm square pillows they have its so perfect for propping up my legs #thanks to that pillow I managed yo straighten out my back and breathe in a way that activated my lower back muscles. seriously was so epic

I’ve taken really good care of my body today :)

#I fed myself three meals and snacks #I hydrated throughout the day #I exercised and went out in the sun #I breathed fresh air #I showered #I brushed my hair and put on lotion #I’m reading a good book #I’ve had good conversations #now to get a good nights sleep :)))

i have much anger in me that i don't know how to calm down

#like in general ig but especially rn and it's a problem bc i should sleep soon :/#i can tell I'm tired but also there is way too much going on inside me to truly sleep #i don't think physical things like breathing exercises can help. bc my thoughts are still my thoughts #I'm not even angry abt a particular thing it's just random things coming and going #I'll always find smth to be mad over so i need a way to just. let that shit out until it passes :////
