Holistic and Somatic Therapists in Berkeley
When anxiety hits in the moment, it can feel overwhelming, like your body has taken over before your mind even has a chance to catch up.
That’s why I’ve found it helpful to have a few simple practices I can turn to right away.
🌿 Grounding brings me back into the present, reminding me that I don’t have to live in the past or the “what ifs” of the future.
🌿 Gentle movement, like stretching or walking, helps release the tension my body holds onto when I’m anxious.
🌿 Breathwork slows my heart rate and gives my brain a clear signal: “It’s safe to settle.”
🌿 Soothing touch, even something as simple as placing a hand over my heart, creates a sense of comfort and safety in my body.
These aren’t about making anxiety disappear instantly, but about reminding your nervous system that you don’t have to stay stuck in high alert.
One of the most powerful supports for me has been therapy, especially body-based therapy.
