Anxiety attacks can be a very traumatizing condition. Left untreated, it can seriously cripple your life and prevent you from enjoying your daily activities. Hence, before it progress to such a stage, you need to know how to overcome anxiety attacks.
Here are some tips on how to overcome anxiety attacks:
Change You Attitude And Mindset
Do not run or hide away from anxiety attack...and certainly do not fear it. As terrifying as it is, anxiety attack can NEVER kill or harm you. This is the truth. Although it may not seem like it, you need to understand that these symptoms are the result of your body being in a state of high alert. Its suppose to feel that way when your "fight or flight" reaction is triggered. You NOT suffering from heart attack, your not dieing.
Reassure yourself of the above facts and KNOW that there is nothing to be afraid of. Anxiety attacks will not last forever.
Next, you will need to train yourself to think positively. Anxiety attacks feed on your fears and anxious feelings. The more you panic, the worse the symptom gets. Get a hold of yourself and rationalize your thoughts.
Balanced Diet & Healthy Lifestyle
A balanced diet and healthy lifestyle are the cornerstone to overcoming anxiety attacks. The food you eat have a direct impact on your mind and body. Cut the fats, processed foods and junk food out of your life. Replace them with fresh greens, fruits and white meats instead. You may not get used to it but two weeks is all it takes to recondition your taste buds for a LIFETIME of benefits and well being.
Last but not least, EXERCISE. Exercising is the easiest and most direct step you can take against anxiety attacks. Beside making you stronger and healthier, regular exercise can help burn off the excess stress biology and adrenaline, making it easier for you to overcome anxiety attacks.
A lot people are originally non-believer in regular workout, but believe me, once you try it out for 2-3 weeks, you will wish that you had started years earlier! Its really that simple and effective! Be it swimming, jogging or even brisk walking, start exercising now and see the HUGE difference it can make to your life.
I always recommend people to take a holistic approach in overcoming anxiety attacks. Instead of venting your frustration, take it positively and make an effort to improve your life.
