The two exercises I found the most beneficial to me were the mindfulness, and visualization exercise. I was going to go with the meditation exercise, but because I haven't yet got to participate in an actual session I decided to go a different route. Focusing on my breathing in the mindfulness exercise was something I found extremely beneficial. My favorite however was the visualization exercise we did this week. It allowed me to visualize some extremely happy times in my life that could do nothing but make me smile when the thoughts came to mind. I can apply these into my life when I'm feeling anxious, or down. The mindfulness exercise can help me focus on my breathing when my anxiety seems to be bothering me, and when I'm not in such a good mood I can go back and complete the visualization exercise. This will help set me back in the right frame of mind, and immediately make me smile about life again.
