Tips to relax
INSTANT RELAXATION
Cup your hands over your nose and mouth and breathe into them for half a minute, or until you feel less fraught.
This helps to readjust the acid/alkaline balance of your blood, which becomes upset by panicky breathing.
Clap your hands in front of your face. Say sharply to yourself (or out loud if you can); "STOP" (meaning stop getting so worked up).
Drop your shoulders, let your hands go down by your sides and let your breath go, quite definitely.
Then use the WASP technique.
