4 Ways to Keep Your Cool in Stressful Situations
1. Physically slow down. Whatever you're doing, do it more slowly, signalling to the brain there's nothing to worry about.
2. Slow down the breathing, bridging the body and mind - apparently, "it is impossible to be stressed with relaxed, slow breathing"
3. Focus only on the activity at hand. This reduces fear and anxiety around past trauma's and concerns over future.
4. Be outcome free. Not easy to do, but can prevent the old self-fulfilling prophecy.
Ps. Roger! Ever had the realization that you've actually been holding your breath, when under duress! Talk about the effects of stress ;) Hugs.
Blessings,
