You can train your brain to be less afraid and this is how!

Here are the nervous system "snacks" that will help get you there:

* Breathe in for the count of 4 and out for 6. Extending your exhale signals to your nervous system that you’re safe.

* Notice 5 things you see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. Your amygdala can’t stay in panic mode when your attention is in the now.

* Name your emotions. I feel anxiety. I’m feeling frustrated. This is grief. Naming your emotions helps you see you are experiencing them, and that you are not them.

* Move your body. This engages both sides of your brain which disrupts anxiety’s hold. It also allows the energy to move through you instead of staying stuck by trying to think your way out of your situation.

Have a couple of these “snacks” throughout the day. Anchor them to stuff you’re already doing like going to the bathroom, brushing your teeth, being in your car, etc. You do not have to spend big chunks of time meditating or journaling unless you enjoy it .
