The practice of deep breathing techniques and praying have given me a lift forward, away from immediate feelings of anxiety and worrisome anxiousness.
Going to the place of religious meditation gives me the opportunity to hand my stress over to someone, relieving me of the control issue. I like being in control which causes me to be anxious.God is always ready to take over.
I use to just think about these techniques,but now I do them and I am a healthier and happier person.I am much easier to be with.
