close your eyes, breath in count of 20, hold for as long as you can, best 20 and exhale to count of 20. Do this with counts 5 or 6 times slowly, hopefully this may help.

I try to lay down and focus on the sound of my breathing. I turn everything off and just try to meditate and calm down. It doesn't always work but it does seem to help a bit

I agree with everyone on here breathing is very important and also I try to picture something that I love in my head or I put music on and sing along with it or sometimes I just take a walk but it is about the breathing and thinking nice thoughts think of something that makes you happy
