2025/07/10 For someone who likes to have balance, it can be especially unnerving to be caught unawares. There is some panic that often occurs, a feeling of urgency and a sense of responsibility to make everything OK. Give yourself the benefit of the doubt and develop a systematic way of dealing with this feeling. Deep breathing exercises, which are taught in most yoga classes, along with drinking a few glasses of water, are the best ways to calm the body and the mind.
