Meditation is a good way to reduce stress. There is Yoga meditation based on breath but there are also simpler, effective ways to meditate. Dr. Herbert Benson published a book called "The Relaxation Response." Dr. Benson describes a simple method that releases stress and thereby helps to physically heal the body. Using this method you sit upright and breathe out - breathe in - breathe out and each time you breathe out you say the word "one." Stretch it out like: "Oneeeeeeee." Say it either to yourself or aloud and as you continue to do this work on slowing your breathing by making your breaths in and out longer. Continue for 20 minutes or so and do it everyday. You will find your stress going down and your life improving.

As you reduce the stress in your life you will find life getting better. If you feel an attack coming on just drop into the exercise and find shelter. This will distract you and help break the anxiety cycle that brings on full blown attacks. As you practice this you will be able to remain panic free for longer and longer periods of time.
