Nervous Ticks

Clearing our throats excessively, tapping our foot, fidgeting with our fingers, tensing our stomach muscles, stretching/pursing our lips, blinking rapidly, sniffing through our nose, even coughing, can all be examples of nervous ticks. EVERYBODY's got them, and there is nothing abnormal about them, since our body is our medium for expressing anxiety. However, if they become an irritation or disrupt our daily lives, we CAN reduce them with simple techniques intended to raise our awareness and ability to catch them before they happen.
