<blockquote>
What can make psychosis so overwhelming is our lack of insight into what's going on. Discovering that other people have gone through similar experiences and made it through them, that alone can be tremendously calming.

Other simple activities or practices that can be calming include:

- Deep breathing.

- Visualizing a mandala.

- Taking a relaxing bath. (Some recommend adding an essential oil to the bath water, such as lavender.)

- Going for a walk in a natural setting. (Some recommend walking barefoot if you can.)

- Channeling the energy in a creative manner, such as creating a piece of art.

- Channeling the energy in a physical manner, such as dancing.

- Eating a heavy meal.

- Sleeping (if you can) and if not sleeping, resting.

- Listening to calming music.
