I highly recommend trying mindfulness meditation. It focuses on being present in the moment, which can help ground you when anxiety strikes. Start with short sessions and build up your practice!

Loving-kindness meditation is also powerful for anxiety. It involves sending positive thoughts and well-wishes to yourself and others, which can foster gratitude and reduce anxious feelings.

I found that guided imagery helps a lot! Picture a serene place in your mind, like a beach or a forest, and immerse yourself in that image. It provides a mental escape during anxious moments.

Practicing body scan meditation can also be beneficial. It encourages you to focus on different body parts while letting go of tension. This can create a sense of calmness throughout your body.

Breath-focused meditation is another great option. Just concentrate on your breathing—feel each inhale and exhale. This simple practice can act as an anchor during moments of anxiety.
