Use guided meditations: Guided meditations can be helpful for keeping your mind focused and for learning different techniques to manage racing thoughts.
Incorporate physical relaxation techniques: Physical relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation, yoga, floatation therapy, or tai chi can help you to release tension and calm your mind.
