[QUOTE="barneysmom, post: 46920, member: 1872"] Hi Allison and all, One quick technique that usually brings me some instant relief is to take a long,full inhale through my nose, hold it (my breath) for 20 seconds, then blow out fairly forcefully through the mouth.It feels great! Also, with relaxation breathing, you can keep the inhale shorter than the exhale, ie. inhale for four counts, exhale for six counts. The longer exhalation promotes relaxation.This could be done for about a minute -- or as long as you care to treat your body to some delicious breathing! I also take Xanax when necessary to break the cycle. But the breath holding works great for me. HTH Good luck You're not alone [/QUOTE]
