Will practicing mindfulness through Headspace help me overcome social anxiety?

I am Sneha Nair. I was born in Kochi on 12th July 2001 at 3:15 PM. I come across difficulties when I want to talk to people I don’t know. My heart beats faster, and I feel like my skin is itching when I am supposed to socialize. When I read, I stumbled upon mindfulness meditation as an effective method to reduce social anxiety by helping the person to be present in the moment, and it really works for me. I have the Headspace app, but I am totally lost on how to start and how long it is going to take for me to feel confident.

Namaste Sneha Ji, Born on 6 January 2000 at 6:35 PM in Kochi, you have a Cancer Ascendant with Moon in Sagittarius. While Sagittarius seeks expansion, your Cancerian sensitivity makes you feel "exposed" in social settings, leading to the itchy skin and racing heart. ● The Mindfulness Solution: Social anxiety is often "future-tripping"— worrying about being judged. Headspace helps by grounding you in the "Five Senses" technique. ● How to Start: Begin with the "Basics" course for 10 minutes a day. It takes about 21 to 30 days to notice a shift in your baseline anxiety, but the "immediate" relief comes from mindful breathing which physically slows your heart rate. ● Confidence Building: As you learn to sit with your own discomfort during meditation, you realize that an "anxious feeling" isn't a "social catastrophe." This realization is the birth of true confidence.
