    Thank you so much! My anxiety has been quite high recently and this definitely helps to ground myself and bring me back to the present moment when I’m feeling anxious.

    It takes time for blood pressure to go down when you get anxiety or panic. But the first thing that happens before the blood pressure goes down is emotional and mental clarity. Thats what breathing exercises do. Then in few minutes the blood pressure goes down with it. The mind gets balanced first then the blood pressure follows. It may take 20 or 40 minutes. Or 5 minutes fir the blood pressure to follow sometimes but it will follow and go down. Then mind and body is balanced. But sometimes the breathing exercises help anxiety and blood pressure very quickly fir some. So its different but sometimes it takes time.

    Theres also a rapid exhalation version of this technique that puts you in the hypnotic state. Just press the sides of your tongue between the back rows of your teeth and exhale as hard as you can. I have not found a technique for a longer stronger exhale than this one.

    If the dizziness is in fact a symptom of anxiety without any other underlying cause, then it is likely that reducing anxiety will reduce related dizziness.
