Good article. I think one of the best and most important things that has helped me recover from anxiety is learning and practicing simple mindfulness. To me it means just sitting in a quiet area and mentally letting my thoughts flow in and out, sometimes counting them and sometimes not but just observing them. It's helped me realize that I am not my thoughts and they can just come and go. It's also helped me be more present in my life.

That's good to hear, I'm trying to practise it myself as I have been told it would be helpful, have struggled to get going though
