awakenthefun Posted March 5, 2011 I suffer from sweaty palms (and get hot easily in general) What practices can I employ (breathing, meditation, diet) to eliminate or diminish this problem. Would retention help in this area? I believe anxiety can be a contributing cause although I don't try to think of it as a huge issue so in it of itself I think that helps.

InfinityTruth Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) Practice relaxing, don't clench your fists (notice when heat is in your hands and practice cooling them with a cool surface) (making a hot pocket) and above all BE A BUM(best way to avoid sweating) EDIT: I used to have the same problem...idk if it went away or not but I think it did....

awakenthefun Posted March 5, 2011 Any specific relaxation sources in mind? I don't clench my fists, try to leave them wide open by my sides, even if they are sweating at the moment. Sometimes I notice my trapezius muscles go up, I assume this is a "tensing up" reaction so I practice making sure my body alignment at most times is relaxed (when I catch myself). Also eliminated caffeine sources in my diet (except for the occasional tea but try to opt in for decaffiented versions most of the time). Tell me more about being a BUM hehe Overtime, OVERALL i think the problem is decreasing, but if I could quantify it, perhaps only by 10% every 1-2 months (so it's likely going to take a year or more before I eliminate the problem for good...)
