bluehawaii87	I think it depends more on what is making you anxious. Until you figure that out, any random answer won't help. If you are feeling anxious and shaky for no reason at all, the best answer would probably be a psychologist or a doctor. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sarah G	I have always found that meditational music played softly, and warmth(heating pads or stones), aromatherapy(oils or candles) have worked. Try headphones if background noise is a problem. Yoga helps, even just doing one or two stances, go to the library and look for B.K.S. Iyengar yoga books and look up relaxing poses. Do not take Benzodiazepines, they wear off, and you'll keep needing more and more, detoxing from them is very dangerous. Valerian root is a natural supplement that works for relaxation. It smells awful, but just hold your nose. Sleepy Time tea by Celestial Seasons is good too. Try relaxation breathing, breathe in through your nose to the count of 3, exhale out your mouth to the count of 4 or 5, continue for 15 minutes. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Cachoeira	If you're at home and you have enough time, taking a bath, it always calms me down and helps me to sleep. You could also try watching a 'comfort' movie, as I call them. Maybe one that helps you relax, feel good, or just take your mind off something worrying you. One of my comfort movies is 'American Beauty' (the end of this movie calms me down alot...it's beautiful). If you're in a public place, go to the bathroom or somewhere you can be alone. Close your eyes, and breathe and try to concentrate on that alone. You could sit and hold your head in your hands, I find that helps as well, it steadies the shaking. Think positive.... I hope that this helped, I feel the same way sometimes too. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Speculator	Chamomile tea can work well. Try "Sleepytime" by Celestial Seasonings. Aside from that, just focus on taking deep breaths and clearing your thoughts. You'll soon notice that your mind will try to run in all sorts of directions. Whenever it does, just recognize it and return to clearing your thoughts and focusing on your breathing. Anxiety can be a tough thing, but this sort of stuff will bring you back down to Earth at least for a while. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

HyperDog	Exercise will help burn off the shakes. Yoga and meditation are also good ways to unstress. Also, don't discount the value of a certain amount of intellectual analysis of your thought processes - a few visits to a counselor might also help you focus on what's important and ignore the stuff that's making you tense - more commonly called an "attitude adjustment".
