Practice attentional control
from Try Softer: A Fresh Approach to Move Us out of Anxiety, Stress, and Survival Mode--and into a Life of Connection and Joy by Aundi Kolber
How to Apply This
-
Assess your environment.
Focus on the items or people that give you a sense of security and safety. For example, when you feel anxious in a gathering, you can focus on your friends and say, “The people I am with are trustworthy, and I do not need to feel like this.” -
Remember your choices.
Understand that you are in control of your actions. For example, if you feel unsafe in a place, remember you are free to walk out of that place.
