Begin by standing & becoming aware of the environment around you.
Move your awareness to your body. Feel your feet planted firmly on the ground. Imagine roots moving from your feet deep down into the earth, into the soil.
Sense them growing stronger and spreading wide and deep beneath you. See and feel the nourishment and energy from the earth traveling up through your roots and into the soles of your feet.
Feel the positive energy of the earth flowing up your body. This love and acceptance and good energy flowing up through your legs, your thighs, your torso.
Through your arms, your chest, your neck, your head. Feel it pushing the negative energy, all the anxiety out of you, as you keep replacing it with this positive energy from the earth.
As the anxiety releases through your head, let go and try to rest in awareness of just being, being still and calm, breathing in and out.
-Take a 2 minute music or dance break
-Have some tea or another warm beverage
-Go for a walk outside
