Stop a racing mind instantly and find deep relief from stress with this guided Body Scan and Anchor Breath meditation. In Part 2 of our Calming Anxiety Mini-Series, Clinical Hypnotherapist Martin guides you through powerful somatic techniques designed to regulate your nervous system and silence the noise of a busy day.If you are struggling with panic, feeling overwhelmed, or simply need a daily sanctuary to reset, this 10-minute session is your tether in the storm.

We move beyond simple relaxation to finding your "Anchor"—a specific physical point of focus that stops the drift of anxiety—combined with subconscious affirmations to plant seeds of resilience.🌿 In this session, you will learn:

• The Anchor Breath Technique: How to identify your body's strongest connection to the breath (nose, chest, or belly) to instantly ground yourself.
  
  
• Somatic Body Scan: Using a visualization of "soft white light" to melt tension from the jaw, shoulders, and entire body.
  
  
• Anxiety Relief Affirmations: Rewiring the mind with the mantra "I breathe in peace, I breathe out fear".
  
• Nervous System Reset: Moving from "fight or flight" into a state of deep safety and control.
