Practicing proximity and touch can help reduce anxiety and reactivity.

“And proximity being able to, as you said, remove certain reactivity and to learn to control that volume control over how reactive I am, and in other scenarios, how do I remove this reactivity altogether is very important for performance and also for our lives for clear thinking, et cetera, because everything is moving through us and is being monitored by us so everything has the potential to detract us from a certain direction of exploration or and if you're reactive, you're a slave, and it becomes worse and worse and worse.”
