Relieve Anxiety with Pressure Points: A Holistic Approach to Calmness
Pressure points are areas on the skin where nerves endings are concentrated. Applying gentle yet firm pressure to these spots can stimulate relaxation and calmness, reducing feelings of anxiety. Key pressure points include the Gallbladder 19 (GB 21), located at the base of the skull; LI 4 (Hegu), between the second and third toe; and Yintang (Third Eye) on the forehead between the eyebrows. Regular practice can lead to improved relaxation response, reduced stress hormones, and enhanced mood. Combining pressure points with mindfulness meditation can further induce deep relaxation and calmness.
