Other things you can do include cutting out caffeine or other stimulants that increase heart rate. Increase your intake of magnesium and taurine which have a natural calming effect via the NMDA receptors in the brain. Deep breathing that stimulates the vagus nerve. lots of other things too.

Interesting fact: People with anxiety have difficulty in differentiating between physiological and psychological stress. This means that when your heart rate increases, or you start to sweat from physical activity, an anxious person will interpret that as anxiety, which will create a positive feedback loop and increase the feelings of anxiety. In more severe cases, increases in heart rate from physical activity can actually cause panic attacks because of this misinterpretation. One of the main therapies for anxiety (after medication) is trigger awareness and reprogramming. Anxiety is one of the easiest mental disorders to treat since a lot of it is just self-fulfilling prophecy (i.e. "I think I'm going to feel anxious, and therefore I do"). Anxiety is therefore the easiest to trewat without medication, although it often helps. Exposure therapy is another cornerstone of anxiety treatment; involving exposing yourself to the things that frighten you so you can get used to them.
