okay - let’s breathe, okay?
Continuously tap on these areas; sensitive places that when taped triggers your brain to calm down the body. Now, while slowly taping whatever body part you chose to use, do these breathing techniques along with. Okay, let’s start this off with some breathing and calming techniques, it may not be what you want to do right now but being in a state of panic/anger isn’t the best place to be in, or the best way to feel when trying to deal with this situation.
But first, take a deep breath - just breathe and follow these directions.
Choose 1 out of these 3 places on your body to lightly tap with your fingertips.
Let’s start out by inhaling for 4 seconds. Ready? Go..
*1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi*
Now, let’s go to holding your breath for 7 seconds (you can do it, it’s only 7 seconds. okay?)
*1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi, 5 Mississippi, 6 Mississippi, 7 Mississippi* See? That wasn’t so bad?
Last one, promise and then we can go to the real talk. To end this off we’ll be exhaling for 8 seconds. Ready? Slowly take in a deep breath..and…go.
1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi, 5 Mississippi, 6 Mississippi, 7 Mississippi, 8 Mississippi*
Repeat this process if you have.
I don’t know why you’re like this, but maybe you can figure it out.
-Did something happen previously? That’s dramatic, sad, or hurtful.
Love, crying is a good thing, maybe not all time, but crying reduces stress; you’ve been holding onto something for too long.
Don’t hate yourself. This too shall pass.
-I hope this helps. Don’t hesitate to message our blog if you need anything else/get something off your chest.
