I can feel the sun on my back, but a cool breeze coming off the water

Did the breaching technique help Karen? Was it a new strategy? Always open to hearing new strategies.

Re: catching up
Karen you should not feel silly, breathing is such an automatic thing, but with anxiety it can become erratic, i know i start breathing really shallow when i am like this, everytime i think about it or feel my chest hurt, i take several deep breaths, please try Karen, make sure you count, breath in and out.
Thank you @Appleblossom, i am trying so hard to snap out of this down turn, i know it will pass, i just need to ride it out.
@NikNik thank you for this.
the water it tempid on my feet and toes in the rock pool i can feel the water laping up my ankles.

Re: catching up
Jacques do you feel like listening to some music together or can we practice our breathing together.
Breathe in count to four slowly breath out count to six. Keep it slow. I know you can do it im holding your hand. Lets do it together.

Re: catching up
As I breathe in I can hear the water retracting from the shore and crashing back up the shore as I breathe out.

Re: catching up
I can see a long way ahead of me along the beach and the sea is a beautiful calm blue.
