The Benefits of Breathing
When we are under stress — whether running from a predator or dealing with a particularly frustrating email — the brain turns on the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which governs the flight, fight, or freeze response. You'll notice the activation of your SNS if you have shallow breathing, tense shoulders, increased blood pressure, or an upset stomach.
Our best successes come from being prepared!
Here at KeepBeingResilient we recognize the deep grief and trauma that you and your family are going through. We've taken the time to learn how and where to find these tools so you can Keep Being Resilient!
Journaling
Want to know the secret to journaling? Start with small steps!
Yep, it's true! Take two minutes to write down a few things. If you want to continue, great! Want to put the pen down? Sure, why not.
We may find some great resources to link here, but so far, not much for free. However, at Keep Being Resilient we have some helpful ideas!
The Gratitude Journal - Write down something that didn't go right for you. Then, write 10 reasons you feel grateful for it. Tip: Don't use the worst thing that's happened to you. Somewhere around a 4 on the 1-10 model.
The Goal Journal - Yep, write down a few personal goals and a few professional goals. See if there's small steps you can take towards those goals. Keeping a journal could count as a goal! Watch your progress as you begin making your daily entries.
Tip: Record your daily accomplishments so you can measure your success!
The Values Journal - What are your core values in your life/work?
Are you living and working with integrity right now?
The Curiosity Journal - What makes you curious? Curiosity is associated with problem solving skills and higher intelligence.
Our take and we hope yours too, is that journaling allows you to track your progress. Journaling helps clear your mind and propels you towards your goals!
Bring clarity and vision to your life!
Salute Heroes - Too many Resources to list!
