#9: Music for the Soul
Panic attacks seem to be more prevalent these days; whether it’s because life really is more stressful, or because we’re more aware of this disorder and use the term more freely, it seems like we all suffer from panic attacks from time to time. Dealing with them can be quite challenging, but this brilliant pro life tip from a Reddit user might be just what you need.
As this person suggests, try creating an “in case of anxiety/panic attack” playlist. Our brains are masters at memorizing feelings tied to specific experiences. So, curate a playlist with calming and uplifting tunes during your serene workout moments or when your mind feels clear. Then, the magic happens. Your brain will associate the music with relaxation or workout mode, triggering a sense of calm. It’s like a soothing cue for your mind to chill out.
