There's a lot going on in our world today. Comment and share the tools that you find most helpful for yourself in managing challenging emotions. 😃

When I need to calm down, I do something get out of my surroundings, walk or a task that requires physical movement also, I repeat positive things to myself over and over to distract myself from the thoughts that are upsetting me. It works most of the time.

[OrbAttraction]

I just started bawling, I can literally feel it coming up from deep within when you started speaking of what your body does....this is what happens to me when I see my surgeons or I speak about my broken body.... I need so much help and I feel so alone.
Failing out of physical therapy so many times.
It's so overwhelming and devastating that no one understands me nor wants to help me find what is causing me not to graduate physical therapy, and most importantly get back my life!
It's been a long five years.
I'm finally taking charge of me and finding such amazing people as you willing to help.
This is truly my last chance for any hope Me finding YouTube has literally saved me from myself 🙏
This is my second video, I am so appreciative of you.
And I am now subscribed 😊

[angelsapa]

[LuciaGomes-sy]

Thank you so much Kyle. I look forward to trying these out for myself

[peaceandlove]

Hope on your trail machine, stretch, sun, deep breathing, sauna, walk on geass, hold a tree, ice on hands, forearms, face, aromatherapy, prayer, reading, dancing, laughing, talk to a loved one, nice bubble bath

[yavrum]

Thank you. 🙏 definitely will try this 🙋‍♀️

[cameronayers]

Thank you so much! Intense exercise has always been my go to, but not always logically possible in the moment as you mentioned, so having some other options is really helpful.

[donnachristman]

Thx so much- I need these daily for overload.

[LuciaGomes-sy]

When my anxiety comes up. I normally would lie down in the dark in silence and catch my breath, I use lavender and it helps me, I drink orange juice and it seems to help me too, I also take myself next to the AC on full blast and my other half puts a cold wet cloth on me to keep me cool.

[jenme]

Yesterday was a rough day mentally. This really helps, thank you!

[beatriceappay]

Great video! In particular the beginning in the car. You are brilliant and I love your voice and the clarity of your explanations. Well done!

[darringodden]

Brilliant advice Kyle.
Thank you.
After many years of trying I have successfully learnt to control this problem.what are your views on breathing to a wrist watch second hand!
I start off at 5 seconds in and 5 seconds out.
The calmer I get the better it gets and I breathe once a minute and often fall asleep.
It may not be suitable for everyone but I was in a very bad way.

[maddyolive]

I've recently gotten into breathwork to calm down. I'd like to try the muscle tensing and releasing you suggested- to better connect to my body :)

[orendalifecoaching]

I’m curious what books are on your bookshelf?? Do you have a video about that?

[laurierichey]

I take a walk, sit in nature, breathing techniques, soak in Epsom salt bath, stretch.

[mariemortreuil]

Good morning I love your videos. I am struggling a lot with anxiety and trauma for 50 years. And would like to find some videos that can help me struggle less. Any suggestions?

I have been using regularly the last month the videos for vagus and it has helped a lot.

Should I use Calm or using only YOU Tube ? I lost my job so subscribing to different apps that cost money are difficult to do lately. Thanks a lot and have a good day

[xiaomengwu]

Why when I was extremely anxious or angry or sad, I actually feel very verbal cold, not the heat you mentioned?

[Medietos]

Hello, is it not cheating the body vwhen there are bad big stressors needing to be solved, to then relax?? I mean, having adequate bodily stress responses of things being seriously wrong, and cheat the brain of being heard by just relaxing instead ? I know onw must sve energy, but still. After relaxing the solution is not thought of anymore, since exhaustion has taken over. Need individual stress help/ counselling.
