For the fun of it, determine how many breaths you normally take per minute. It shall give you a sense of how "hyper" you are. If you are able to lessen the number of breaths to 9 or 10, you will not only relax, but you shall also lower your blood pressure. Your parasympathetic component of your nervous system will receive a message that "it's ok" or your "good-to-go" to relax.
Start the practice now. Breathe in through your nose for a count of 5-7 and then breathe out, again through your nose for a count of 9-10. How many times you do this is up to you, but I would recommend at the very least 3x's several x's/day. If it's particularly stressful, add 1-3 times per day.
As you can see for yourself, it won't take you very long to do this.
