Peace
Today, I choose peace. When I find my mind ruminating with thoughts that fill my spirit with anger, I will use the tools I have learned in this session to be able to release that powerful emotion.
Tools
-Acknowledge out loud when I am feeling anger.
-Then take 5 or maybe more deep breaths to bring myself back to a state of calm
-I will also ask myself “If I were to die tomorrow, is this really what I want to be spending my energy on?”
-Practice active gratitude- Starting the day with naming 3 things I am grateful for.
I cannot control how others behave or their actions. I only have control over how I respond. And, in this way I take back my power.
