Join Jasmine in visualising the Rasas after her nerves get the better of her during a major Kathak dance competition. As she recalls the advice of her teacher and grandmother, Jasmine explores how to reconnect with her own emotions to manage feelings of anxiety.

Support:If, like Jasmine, you’re feeling anxious, confused, worried, or overwhelmed, small activities such as reaching out to those close to you, and reconnecting with creative hobbies you enjoy can help. However, if these thoughts continue to hold you back from living the life you want to lead, it might be time to share how you feel with a friend, family member, community support group, or your GP. There are also links to additional support on the hearmyselfthink.co.uk website.
