1. Find a quiet place: Choose a quiet place where you can relax without being disturbed.
2. Sit comfortably: Sit in a comfortable position, preferably on a chair with your back straight.
3. Close your eyes: Gently close your eyes to shut out outside distractions.
4. Use your fingers: Use your thumbs to apply gentle pressure to each finger on each hand, starting with the thumb itself and following the same order for each hand. This pressure should be firm but gentle, and it should be maintained for a few seconds on each finger.
5. Breathe deeply: As you perform this pressure, focus on your breathing. Take deep breaths in through your nose and exhale slowly through your mouth.
6. Visualize relaxation: As you apply pressure to your fingers, visualize the stress leaving your body with each exhalation. Imagine yourself becoming more and more relaxed with each breath.
7. Repeat as needed: You can repeat this process for a few minutes until you feel relaxed and calm.
