Anxiety Tips




I know I have touched base on anxiety before but lately
mine has been really bad so I have done more research
and wanted to post about it. I do have a prescription
for anxiety but I am trying not to take it anymore
unless nothing else works.

Breath... take 10 slow and deep breaths and keep your
entire focus on your breath.

Think of a color... for example let's say the color is blue.
Repeat the word "blue" until your mind is full of blue
and your nagging thoughts have gone away.

Hold your breath... this one does work, hold your breath
as long as you can, the longer you hold it your brain
starts to shift off those nagging thoughts onto
when am I going to breathe again.

Guided relaxation... there are tons of apps now a days
and websites that you can use to guide you through
a short "relaxation" or "meditation"

Go for a walk... it doesn't have to be a long one, put your
earbuds in turn on some of your favorite music and
soak in some Vitamin D.

Best supplements for anxiety:
GABA, it's gamma-aminobutyric acid which is an
amino acid and a neurotransmitter located in the
brain that is crucial to serotonin production.

Passion Flower

Valerian Root

LIcorice Root

Ashwagandha

Rhodiola

Before taking any supplement make sure they don't
interfere with any prescriptions you are on.

Another thing that works for me is I bought a pack of nasal
inhalers off eBay, you use them with essential oils.
I made one with lemon essential oil that aids in
anxiety relief. I will inhale that a couple
of times in each nostril.

The last thing you can do is try to figure out why
you are having anxiety, sometimes you really don't know,
others something might have triggered it.
If something did trigger it try not to do what set
you off in the first place again. If it is something you
know you are going to have to do again, have your plans
in place and try to get a head of it before it even occurs.

Buffalo Chicken Nachos

  Football has started so everyone wants something to snack on BUT I even look for something different for dinner. I tried to look up buffalo chicken shit on a shingle with no recipes but I came across this one. Now you can do the nachos or you can create your own shit on a shingle version with a piece of toast and melted cheese on top of the toast with the buffalo chicken on top...hmmmm... Anyways, here ya go. Recipe makes 6-8 servings. What you'll need: Nachos.... 1/3 - 1/2c you're favorite hot sauce 3c cooked shredded chicken 8-10oz tortilla chips 1 1/3 - 2c shredded Mexican blend cheese Topping.... 1/2c plain greek yogurt 3-5T more of hot sauce 3-4 green onions thinly sliced Create: Preheat the oven to 400˚F. In a medium bowl, mix the hot sauce with the shredded chicken until well coated. Set aside. Place the tortilla chips in an even layer on a baking sheet, face side up so the chips will hold the toppings. Add the chicken evenly over the chips, followed by the cheese. Bak

Lower the pot to a simmer and take a towel over your head and put your head over the pot. Chicken Soup, yes you read that right!
