When Calm Feels Unsettling

Have you ever felt anxious in moments of calm? It’s more common than we think. Sometimes, when life quiets down, our minds struggle to embrace the stillness, rushing to fill it with worry or fear.
🌀 This can happen when we’re used to being on high alert, when chaos feels familiar, or when we’re waiting for “the other shoe to drop.” But here’s the thing—calm is safe. It’s okay to allow ourselves to rest in it, even when it feels strange.
🌿 Next time anxiety creeps in during a peaceful moment, try grounding yourself with deep breaths and remind yourself: “I am safe here. I deserve this calm.”
Let’s give ourselves permission to feel peace. 💖

Did you know your eyes can calm your heart?

As both a medical doctor and an anxiety coach, I want to share with you a simple but powerful tool: The OculoCardiac Reflex

When you gently place your palms over your closed eyes and rest there for 30–60 seconds, something incredible happens:
👉 Your vagus nerve gets stimulated.
👉 Your heart rate slows down.
👉 Your nervous system shifts into rest and digest mode.

This practice is safe, quick, and deeply grounding especially when you feel anxious, overstimulated, or restless.
How to try it:
1. Sit comfortably and close your eyes.
2. Gently cup your palms over your eyes (no pressure, just soft contact) for 30 secs
3. Breathe slowly and allow the darkness to soothe you.
4. Notice your heartbeat begin to settle.

I often teach this in my sessions and it’s a beautiful way to invite your body back into calm.
Disclaimer: please do not put pressure on your eyes… if you are not comfortable doing it alone do it with a therapist.
Remember: your body already has built-in healing switches, you just need to know where they are.

High Functioning Anxiety Awareness at IBS Management College, Powai

On 6 th sept, I had the joy of conducting a session for the bright students of IBS Management College on High Functioning Anxiety.

We explored:
🔹 What situations trigger anxiety for them
🔹 The symptoms they experience in their daily lives
🔹 How they currently cope with it
🔹 And most importantly, a practical exercise the AEIOU vocal toning technique to calm the mind and regulate the nervous system.

The students were fully engaged, shared openly, and left with simple, doable tools they can practice anytime. The energy in the room was beautiful, and it reminded me how necessary these conversations are in academic spaces.

A heartfelt thank you to Clarita for organising this session and to IBS Management College for trusting me, Dr. Evelet, Anxiety Coach, to hold this space for your students. 🙏

Here’s to a calmer, more aware, and anxiety-free generation.

Anxiety is usually a symptom..
I love this post by .msw where she speaks about three underlying emotions for anxiety to manifest
Sharing my experience here
Fear: whenever i had to face an audience and do a speaking assignment I would feel all symptoms of anxiety .. the fear was stemming from the thought what if I forget , or what if I f@&k up, what if I’m not appreciated by the audience…

Sadness: when my dad was admitted in the ICU and I saw a bleak future I felt extremely sad that I would lose him for ever.. the sadness couldn’t be contained in my being and I had anxiety symptoms

Shame: my mother constantly shamed me for talking to boys and watching tv, and many more things… every time I came across a personality like hers I would freeze and experience anxiety.. years of verbal abuse put me in a crazy frenzied state

What is your experience with anxiety…
Let me know in the comments…

Grounding in Nature: Your Anxiety Reset Button

When anxiety spins your thoughts in circles, your body craves something steady. One of the simplest, most powerful tools? Nature grounding.

Here’s how you can try it today:
👣 Walk barefoot on grass or soil — let the earth hold you.
🌳 Rest your back against a tree — breathe with it, slow and steady.
Notice 5 things around you: the color of leaves, the sound of birds, the feel of the breeze, the scent of flowers, the warmth of sunlight.

Nature has a way of whispering: “You are safe. You belong. You are held.”

When you feel anxious, step outside. Even 5 minutes can shift your energy from restless → calm, from scattered → grounded.

You don’t have to fight anxiety. Sometimes, you just need to root yourself back to the present.

Try this today and let me know how your body feels after.

Sharing my personal anxiety story
Anxiety can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to define us. Here are a few practical strategies that helped me shift from anxious thoughts to empowered action:
1. Breathing and grounding helped me calmn my nervous system and regain control
2. Challenging my thoughts with questions like is it true? Is this realistic? What’s the worse case scenario?
3. Breaking tasks into smaller steps and taking it slow
4. Empathy for my daughter helped me connect to her anxiety as well and thus I knew that if I am grounded so will she be
5. Seeking help from an expert was the key step in alleviating my personal anxiety over my daughter health issue.

Remember, overcoming anxiety is a journey, not a destination. Be patient with yourself as you practice these tools and take small steps toward feeling more grounded and empowered.

What to Tell Yourself When Anxiety Shows Up

When anxiety rises, your mind may whisper:
“I can’t handle this.”
“Something bad will happen.”
“I’m not safe.”

Here’s what I invite you to gently remind yourself instead:

“This feeling is temporary.”
Anxiety feels huge in the moment, but it always passes.
“My body is just trying to protect me.”
That racing heart, shallow breath, or shaky hand is your nervous system working overtime. You’re not broken you’re human.
“I have tools to calm myself.”
Place your hand on your chest. Breathe slowly in through your nose, out through your mouth. Whisper to yourself: “I am safe in this moment.”
“I don’t need to believe every anxious thought.”
Thoughts are clouds. They pass. You get to choose which ones you hold onto.

Next time anxiety knocks on your door, welcome it with compassion instead of fear.
Say: “I see you. I’m here. And I’m okay.”

Remember, you are bigger than your anxiety.

Anxiety around body image is real
For many young women, feeling pressure to look a certain way can create overwhelming anxiety. We’re constantly surrounded by images telling us what “perfect” looks like—whether it’s on social media, in movies, or even in everyday conversations. Women are frequently exposed to unrealistic beauty ideals that emphasize thinness, flawless skin, and certain body proportions, leading to feelings of inadequacy and self-consciousness.
But here’s the truth: Your worth is NOT tied to your appearance. Every body is unique, beautiful, and deserving of love, no matter the shape, size, or imperfections society tries to label us with.
Let’s stop the comparison game and start embracing ourselves for who we are—inside and out. If you’re struggling, remember you’re not alone. Reach out, talk about it, and seek support when you need it.
Self-love is the most important kind of love. 💕

Struggling to let go of an ex? You’re not alone.

Anxiety makes it harder to release the past because your nervous system is wired to hold on to what feels familiar, even when it’s painful. That lingering “what if” loop is your mind trying to protect you, not punish you.

But here’s the truth: holding on doesn’t heal you. It keeps you stuck in a story that no longer serves your heart.

Healing begins when you gently remind yourself:
• “I can miss them and still choose myself.”
• “I can feel pain and still move forward.”
• “I deserve peace more than I deserve confusion.”

If you’re experiencing anxiety after a breakup, try this simple practice today:
Place your hand on your chest.
Take 3 slow breaths.
Whisper: I release what is not mine to carry.

It’s not about forgetting them overnight. It’s about coming home to yourself, one breath at a time.

💌 Save this for when you feel the urge to reach out. You’re worthy of calm love especially from yourself.

“Why do I always show up for everyone… but no one shows up for me?”

If this feels familiar, you may be carrying high-functioning anxiety.

On the outside, you’re the dependable one.
✅ The friend who always answers the late-night call.
✅ The colleague who never says no.
✅ The family member who carries it all.

But on the inside? You’re exhausted.
You crave the same care, presence, and love you pour into others… yet when you need support, silence often greets you.

Here’s the truth 👉 It’s not that people don’t care. It’s that your high-functioning anxiety has trained you to:
✨ Hide your struggles behind a smile.
✨ Over-function so no one needs to help you.
✨ Believe your worth lies in giving, not receiving.

Beautiful soul, I want you to hear this: You deserve reciprocity. You deserve to be held. You deserve to be seen.

Your healing begins the moment you learn to:
🌿 Pause before saying yes.
🌿 Allow yourself to ask for help.
🌿 Believe that showing up for YOU is just as important as showing up for them.

You are not meant to carry it all alone.
