After testing positive most people develop unnecessary anxiety. This anxiety is not because of the mild or moderate symptoms of corona but because of fear of death. In a mild case, the corona is just like influenza you may have fever cough sore throat which is not something we need to think much about Otherwise but As you get to know It’s none other than corona your anxiety starts increasing which results in high blood pressure level and it may create so many other problems. It’s Your mind only which makes you sick more than actually, you are.
Now the main concern is how to be calm if tested positive for Covid 19
Here I’m going to share with you some tips which really worked for me when I was fighting with corona. My whole family infected with corona all had mild symptoms but I was having breathing difficulties apart from fever and sore throat. As I realized I’m having difficulty breathing first thing which I said to my mind is “don’t panic”.
There are so many negative thoughts that come after watching the news which hit you really hard so I stopped watching or reading anything related to corona.
As I was in home Isolation I was free to do anything of my interest but my health was not that well so that I could do anything So I started listening to some Indian mantras like “Mahamrityunjaya Mantra” (i.e. Rudra Mantra or Tryambakam Mantra). It really calms your mind and soul.
I must say meditation has the power to heal your body faster than ever. I had never done meditation in my entire life but during this phase, I started meditating for 20 minutes regularly.
Another thing which I used to do regularly was breathing exercise. It strengths your lungs. Even though you are not feeling shortness of breath give 15 minutes to this exercise. It will help you in speedy recovery. You can do humming exercises also.
