A balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats and proteins supports the immune system and improves mood  helping you handle stress better. When anxious, try to focus on healthy foods you enjoy.

Exercise

Exercise is a great solution to many diseases. Through exercise we can get rid of mental and physical diseases. It is a great tool through which we increase our physical capacity, and especially when we are under stress, we should pay full attention to exercise. Exercise calms our mind and increases its performance.

Through exercise we can also bring discipline into our lives because we have such a perfect timetable, and a proper order is created in our lives.

"Let me share an example of mine with you. My wife became a cardiac patient. When we went to the doctor, the doctor prescribed medicine and put a lot of emphasis on exercise. The doctor said that morning walk-up is part of the treatment. I said that if we are living in the villages, there is a lot of work, which is why we do not need to walk. Morning walks must be done, and when we adopted morning walks, I noticed a lot of change in my wife, especially in her health, and the cardiac problem that was going on was also cured. That is, exercise, especially morning walks, is very important for a person in my opinion; it keeps you very healthy and also protects you from many diseases.

Now a question arises: how much exercise should be done daily or one or two days a week? According to various research, it is better to exercise daily for 30 minutes to two hours, according to your physical ability. Exercise can also be your favorite sports. Jogging, swimming, or going to the gym is also better.

Those who are cardiac patients should avoid running but should exercise according to the doctor's instructions

Take up favorite hobbies

Taking time out for your favorite hobbies is also very beneficial to reduce anxiety. For example, if you like reading stories, start reading them.

Start watching your favorite movies.

Better sleep

Lack of sleep can make even a healthy person sick, so if you suffer from anxiety, eight hours of sleep a day is very important for you, which refreshes your mind and prepares you for the next task; especially night sleep is very important.

Try to get sleep naturally. In case of any illness, if you have to resort to any medicine, do not self-medicate and take sleeping medicine without a doctor's recommendation. Instead, sleeping medicine can be taken according to the doctor's advice. It is also better to get sleep naturally.

If you don't get enough sleep, you can clearly see that your face looks dull, your skin becomes loose, and your skin glow is also affected, and blue light under your eyes has a very bad effect on your personality, so sleep works as a therapist to get rid of anxiety.

You've often seen doctors who treat a lot of patients with psychiatric or mental health issues recommend sleep medicine because sleep is healing, and nothing works better than sleep to keep the brain fresh and improve its performance.

Relax your body

When muscles are tense due to worry, deliberate relaxation techniques and gentle stretching can relieve physical discomfort.

Meditate and take deep breaths

Meditating and taking deep breaths in the state of anxiety is very beneficial, so put your hands in your lap, sit with your feet crossed on the floor or sit on quiet, clean grass, close your eyes, take long, deep breaths, and slowly exhale, and repeat this process over and over again. Do this for at least five to 20 minutes.

Especially this place to sit choose Where people's prosperity is less, there should be no noise so that no one affects you.

Discuss your problems

Whenever any problem surrounds you, try to talk to yourself first, start speaking and discuss your problem with your heart and find a solution.

If you do not understand the solution, then do not keep it in your heart, but talk to a close friend, a family member, a doctor or a professional psychologist.

Mentioning your problem to someone will lighten your heart and you will feel a lot of peace.

Do not think of yourself as inferior at all, but try to convince yourself that I can do better, I am not inferior to anyone.

But don't put yourself in such trouble that if you are doing a task over and over again and it is not within your jurisdiction yet you are stuck on it then it can put you in trouble so don't put yourself in trouble and make it easy and leave it because not everything is for everyone so make it easy in your life in a positive way try to do the work you can do better don't make it difficult for yourself

Perform religious rituals

If you are suffering from anxiety, then you should turn to your God, especially worship, pray to God, do various dhikr and azkar. When you ask God a lot, you will feel satisfied. For this, pray as much as possible, pray long prayers, pray long prayers, recite the Holy Quran, recite your religious book.

To get rid of anxiety, it is very important for you to first know the reasons behind it. You should find out the reasons why you are anxious and where it is related to, i.e. is it because of your business, an educational activity, domestic matters or travel matters? However, you should find out the real reasons for your anxiety and find possible solutions to them and try to solve them. If you do not find solutions to anxiety or do not try to eliminate it, then you will become useless. The car of your life will become completely slow and you will not be able to do anything better. Therefore, it is better to try to eliminate whatever problem is arising so that you can move forward with a better and more beautiful life.

If self-help measures don’t suffice, consult a professional. Addressing anxiety early helps the “vehicle of life” move forward with more energy, clarity and purpose.
