If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?
If you’ve ever downloaded the “Calm” app to help deal with anxiety or insomnia or tinnitus (or all three, like me) you know that every time you open it, the words “take a deep breath” appear in white letters on a soothing purplish blue screen. It’s one of the best things about the app. Before you even start using it, it puts you in a better frame of mind.
I’d steal that for my billboard.

Great post!
I think whenever it feels like the world is getting the best of you, one of the quickest, and easiest things to do is to stop and take a deep breath. It allows you a few seconds to reset, refocus, and recalibrate.

Recently, my tinnitus has gone up a notch. Does the app really help?

I think so. I got the paid version and there are SO many different soundscapes you can try. I also like the “bilateral stimulation” playlist. (My tinnitus is more on one side)

I’ll have to check it out. I could use a little relief and I’m open to anything!

I also tried the over-the-counter “lipo flavonoid plus for ear ringing” vitamin supplements (from CVS) and they may have helped too. Mine is quite a bit better at the moment 🤞🏼

Thanks! I’ll look for them! I just started b12 hoping it will help. I’ve been taking magnesium glycinate. That helped me sleep better.

That would be an excellent billboard.
