Somatic Reset  10 Minutes to Turn Off Your Panic Response

Somatic Reset 10 Minutes to Turn Off Your Panic Response

Author: Martin Hewlett - Calming Anxiety February 17, 2026 Duration: 10:21
Finding tranquility in a busy world shouldn't be another task on your to-do list. This episode of Calming Anxiety offers a 10-minute somatic reset designed to help you transition from "optimization mode" to a state of restorative peace.

Overcome Stress and Reclaim Your Inner PeaceIn this guided session, we practice glimmer hunting—the mindful art of noticing micro-moments of safety and joy, such as the warmth of a morning coffee or a patch of golden sunlight. By shifting your focus from external triggers to internal safety, you can effectively retrain your nervous system to choose calm over panic.



Inside This 10-Minute Mindfulness Session:
  • The Double Inhale Technique: Learn the fastest, science-backed breathing method to hack your nervous system and instantly turn off the panic response.

  • Progressive Somatic Release: A guided body scan to identify where the day has "clenched" and manually release tension from your jaw, shoulders, and core.


  • Daily Affirmations for Worthiness: Deepen your subconscious belief in your own value with our daily intention: "I am open to the good that is here".

  • 3 Practical Caring Tips: Actionable advice on setting "glimmer goals," using the "somatic shake" to discharge physical stress, and protecting your mental health with a 10-minute morning digital fast.
