[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 46677, member: 3647"] Allison I have times where I feel that my heart is going to beat right out of my chest. Truly, these things help (make sure you don't fall asleep if you need to be awake doing something!) Lavender oil. I have some in a mister. Spray it on whatever surface you are near. Darken the room, close your eyes. If you can get your hands on one of those relaxation CDs, great. Otherwise, it is fairly easy to do it yourself in your own mind. Start with "thinking" your toes to relax. Then your feet. Ankles. With each body part, wiggle or stretch it a bit, then imagine it becoming completely relaxed. Do this to the top of your head. You are willing your body to relax. Any type of soothing music (or better yet, the sound of a beach) in the background helps. Any soft, comfortable fabric touching your body. Your preferece: cotton, silk, satin. I have horrible insomnia. This puts me to sleep in 10 minutes. And at times when I have these horrible heart thumping episodes, it brings me back to earth. Hope this helps. Hugs and prayers. [img]:flower:[/img] [/QUOTE]
