    How can I immediately relieve mental stress?

    Dr. Howard E. LeWine

    M.D. Chief Medical Editor, Harvard Health Publishing · 40 years of exp

    When you need fast-working relief for mental stress, try belly breathing. 1. Lie on your back. Put one hand on your belly, just below the navel. Close your eyes. 2. Breathe in quietly through your nose, filling your lower lungs with air. As the diaphragm pulls down, you should feel your belly rise about an inch. Your chest will rise, too, in concert with your abdomen. 3. Breathe out, allowing your belly to return to its starting position. 4. Keep breathing through your nose, mouth closed, as your belly and chest rise and fall, for a few minutes or until you feel more relaxed.
