2. Talk to yourself about the problem. Work it out in your own words.
3. Try empathy. If someone is bothering you, think of what you might have done or felt in his or her place. Are you so very different, truly?
4. Model grace. Practice makes (almost) perfect.
5. Be patient. Remind yourself that time, like water lapping a beach, tends to smooth wrinkles.
6. Remember what is important. Are you really prioritizing correctly?
7. Laugh. At something, anything.
8. Can you do something to make it better right now?
9. Repeat Step 5. Perhaps given a little time away from the situation, you might see it differently.
10. Ask someone for help--someone you can trust and be yourself with.]]> 2017-03-01 13:17:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/156998239 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/156999766 Stress shrinks your brain's available solution pathways! Fight or flight is a binary response, and most modern problems don't get solved that way. I mean, try it, but don't blame me when you lose your job, have a bloody nose, are brought up on assault charges, and nobody loves you.
Raise dopamine in your brain by thinking about things you are grateful for. Make a list. Right now. I have one at my desk for emergencies.
Name your state of mind and take control of your own thoughts and feelings. "I am freaking out right now. My chest feels like it is constricted. I am afraid of..........etc"
Breathe deeply. 3 times.
Take a walk.]]> 2017-03-01 13:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/156999766 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157087676 2017-03-01 16:53:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157087676 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157092107 2017-03-01 17:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157092107 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157121740 2017-03-01 18:15:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157121740 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157319198 2017-03-02 14:04:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157319198 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157320133 A song written by Chris Stuart. I'm learning it.
It goes like this:
Sleep little baby, sleep ‘til the morning comes
Mama will keep you from all harm
Sleep little baby under the western sky
I’ll sing you a desert lullaby

Sleep little baby, sleep on your mama’s knee
Don’t call the wolf and coyote
Sleep little baby, hush baby don’t you cry
I’ll sing you a desert lullaby

Dream little baby, dream of a valley green
Far over mountains by the sea
Dream little baby, one day no more you’ll roam
Then you’ll awake and find a home

Sleep little baby, sleep ‘til the morning comes
Mama will keep you from all harm
Sleep little baby under the western sky
I’ll sing you a desert lullaby]]> 2017-03-02 14:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/157320133 jessica_weaver1 https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/173702145 2017-05-24 19:03:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_weaver1/9owyh83m8jru/wish/173702145
