**Preferably non-substance/drug

I'll share a couple:

4 7 8 breathing

ears underwater

music/audio at slower speed (0.6-0.9)

Let's hear em. I might want to do a series for various conditions or states so stay tuned and lets crowd-source this shit, enough of the "read my new/old 400pg tome for an introduction". 🤮 Distill

My ex used to massage the anxiety out of my arms from shoulders to fingers like toothpaste. It was great. If you have someone close, try it.

Playing an instrument works wonders too.
