Answer 3

The most important thing! Tell her to try not to worrie about getting one, because thats what causes them after youve had a few, its hard but with a little practice it gets better..

Tell her to relax as much as she can, dont stress, think positivly and once again dont think about them!

Another idea, get her to start remembering her dreams, every one dreams every night believe it or not, the more you try ro remember the easier it is, so make sure she does that, dreams reduce stress..

Goodluck x
