We are having an extremely stressful time amidst the coronavirus, quarantine, and dealing with our emotions during the self-isolation. Anxiety and stress are real and we all need to deal with sooner or later. To take charge of your emotions, practice self-soothing during the pandemic to prevent getting overloaded by the stress of coronavirus and isolation.
Self-soothing is physical, psychological, biological, and emotional learning and the ability to calm down after experiencing something stressful. Practicing self-soothing during the pandemic is helpful to go through the stressful and traumatic experience.
Sensory-soothing behavior is one of the powerful self-soothing during the pandemic. You can simply trace the lines on your hands or gently rub your forearm with the thumb. They might sound silly but it’s a way of telling your brain that everything is okay with you and you are safe. You need to send comforting signals to your brain very often during quarantine and self-isolation.
when in panic or highly stressed, run your hands through a jar of rice, beans, or coffee beans – it can be helpful! Think about how relaxed you are in a park or on a beach playing in the sand. A bubble bath is one of my favorite self-soothing techniques. Self-soothing behaviors will help you manage pandemic at ease.
conscious Breathing Technique – As soon as you feel stressed, you need to take a few deep and slow breaths. Following easy breathing techniques helps you exhale the tension and it is one of the best tips for self-soothing during the pandemic.
We hope these techniques will help self-soothing during the pandemic. Be empathic and carry positive emotions. Try to stay as calm as possible because you need peace in your life during the pandemic and forever. Ease at home with this amazing quarantine quiz.
