The self-relief methods for premature beats mainly include the following aspects: 1. Adjusting lifestyle: Maintain emotional stability, avoid tension and anxiety, ensure adequate sleep, and develop good living habits. 2. Improving exercise habits: Avoid strenuous exercise; opt for gentle activities such as slow walking and tai chi, which are beneficial for restoring cardiopulmonary function. 3. Adjusting dietary habits: Quit smoking and drinking alcohol; avoid consuming strong tea, coffee, and other stimulant beverages. Follow a low-salt, low-fat, and light diet. 4. Physical methods: During episodes of premature beats, you may try deep breathing, coughing, stimulating the throat, or gently pressing on the eyeballs to alleviate symptoms. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.
