Breathing pause
A short breathing pause does not solve the problem, but it can create space between stimulus and response.
Key points
- Do not force your breathing.
- Name your state after the pause.
- Use it before reacting, not after escalation.
Exercise
Write one observation from the last 24 hours and choose one micro-step for today.
Reflection
