Here are a few ways to respond instead of reacting.

Pause

When triggered by emotions, it's crucial to pause, even if it's difficult and discouraging, and take a moment to reflect on our current actions.

Deep breathing

Take deep breaths after pause to boost brain oxygen, manage impulsive decisions, and calm the anxious mind, promoting overall calming effects on the mind and body.

Checking-in

Regular self-check-in helps us understand our past experiences, traumas, and emotions, enhancing our awareness and ability to regulate our emotions better.

Soothe ourselves

When facing difficulties, it's crucial to validate our emotions and provide the necessary affirmations rather than being harsh on ourselves.

Being intentional

We should carefully consider the consequences of our actions and make conscious decisions.
