36. Are Your Thoughts & Emotions Out Of Control? Use These 5 Tools To Get Grounded

You're at that point of feeling so overwhelmed, so caught up in your head, and it feels like you have no idea how you’re going to make it through the next hour, let alone the next week or two. It feels like nothing is certain in this moment; you forget what supports you have in your life, what you’re good at, who loves you. Your thoughts, feelings, emotions feel out of control, like someone has just hijacked your body, your brain. You’re in survival mode.
After struggling for years with anxiety and intrusive thoughts during my premenstrual phase, these grounding techniques were some of the initial tools I used to get out of the mental tornado. 
What I really want for you is to feel more grounded and centered, and not be rocked around by the wind and waves of premenstrual anxiety. These 5 practices will help ground you to the present moment, and help move you past the internal chaos and confusion.
I hope they bless you!
