To Reduce the stress associated with a situation, it must be addressed in the body and in the head.
That means:
- Take a step back and appeal to reason: Is my reaction normal? adequate? What is really stressing me out in this situation? Which emotions arise?
- Take a pause, observe your body, your breath
- Learn techniques to calm the body symptoms and the mind
- Pay attention to you lifestyle
- Go step by step to gradually calm your mind and trigger less warning signals. One small objective after another.
