Are there any non-medical treatments for anxiety?
By "non-medical," I think you mean no medication? if yes, there certainly are things that you can try aside from medication. People with anxiety often find great relief in talking with a therapist. This allows for individuals to learn the triggers for their anxiety and also learn coping skills to manage it. Physical exercise is always a great idea, anxious or not. Yoga, meditation, Reiki, acupuncture, acupressure, and other Eastern practices can also help to reduce anxiety symptoms. READ MORE
