The 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique for Anxiety Relief #shorts

Anxiety pulls you into your head. Grounding brings you back to your body and the present. Try 5-4-3-2-1: name 5 things you see, 4 you feel, 3 you hear, 2 you smell, 1 you taste. It works because your brain can’t spiral and stay fully anchored in your senses at the same time. Anxiety lives in the future. Your senses live in the now. #AnxietyRelief #GroundingTechniques #Mindfulness #MentalHealth #DrTraceyMarks
