Stones to soothe anxiety

An anxiety attack or panic attack is one of the possible manifestations of anxiety disorders. It is an acute anxiety attack that appears suddenly and lasts from a few minutes to a few hours. The person will feel intense fear (of dying, of going crazy), a feeling of immediate danger and unpleasant physical sensations (throbbing, sweating, tremors, chest pain, etc.).

The physical symptoms that accompany the panic attack will be more or less spectacular and will fuel and aggravate the fear felt by the person who has the impression of totally losing control .

So, different situations of fear and anguish (including that of no longer being able to breathe) can trigger hyperventilation , which can itself cause certain symptoms, in particular dizziness , numbness of the limbs , tremors and palpitations .

In turn, these symptoms make fear and anxiety worse . It is therefore a vicious circle which is self-perpetuating.

In order to prevent and reduce these symptoms, there are several lithotherapy stones that you can use and thus reduce your anxiety.

Here is an overview of the best stones to counter these effects.
