This is a micro action you can take to ground yourself in an overwhelming situation. It reminds you that in just three breaths during stress, you align yourself with the universe.
Invisiblock
When you are feeling overwhelmed by all the possibilities that exist in the outer world, try this to calm yourself.
- Inner World: Place your hand on your chest. Breathe in and out. Notice the environment of love. Say, “I control myself.”
- Shared Reality: Use a sense to interact with the environment (smell, listen to, look at, taste, or touch something). Breathe in and out. Notice the environment of love. Say, “I sense what is real.”
- Love: Place your palms upward. Breathe in and out. Notice the inner peace of acceptance from love. Say, “The rest controls itself.”
How This Helps
- It uses breathing to help you reconnect to the ultimate environment of love. The universe supports you and manages itself.
- It helps you see progress. You can create a log to track each time you rise above hardship using this method. You can actually see your growing agency.
- It helps remind you what you actually control. It reminds you not to worry about distant things outside of your control. It highlights how you worry about things that may never happen so that you can use that energy for something else.
- It helps motivate you by relying on dopamine from managing your nervous system. It rewards your agency by boosting your confidence and self-esteem. It pulls you out of the intensity of survival mode by using somatic therapy through breath and the senses.
