      breathing exercise. One of the recommended ways to practise breathing is to do what is called diaphragmatic breathing, as follows: Place one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach. Breathe in through your nose slowly, allowing your stomach to swell, pushing out the hand that is resting on it and then gently exhaling to allow your stomach to subside. If the hand on your chest is moved by your breath rather than the hand on your stomach then you are not breathing through your diaphragm, so practise again until it is the stomach which moves. Count your breaths one by one as you breathe in and out.
    • Practise a similar short breathing exercise at times when you are feeling anxious or before going into a situation which you dread.
    Cognitive behavioural therapy or coaching can also be helpful in teaching you techniques which you can practise to deal with the negative and anxious thoughts which are leading you to become worried and stressed. For example, if you suffer from social anxiety you might have a tendency to mind read – that is to say, you imagine what other people will think (imagining that they will think something negative about you). Try writing down these thoughts prior to going into the problematic situation and then write down some alternative thoughts that you might say to yourself to counter the mind reading thoughts.
    
    

    For example, if you are going into a social situation where you are meeting people you do not know, you might have the thought: They will see that I am stupid and will laugh at me. Write this down and then next to it write something that you can say to challenge or question this thought in a realistic way. For instance, you might write down the following challenge: Some people there will be more concerned with their own problems to notice, even if I do say something stupid, and others may be sympathetic.

    When you go into the situation remind yourself of that challenge to help you get through the situation.

    This is just one of numerous techniques you can use to help yourself in difficult situations. At first they may seem artificial or you may find it difficult to believe the new thoughts you are trying to teach yourself. This is normal. You are retraining your mind to think in a different and more constructive way. Try to take things pati
