Reducing stress: problem solve ahead of time

We can reduce stress by preparing ahead of time.

Think about times when you do not feel so great.

What is behind the unpleasant feeling? Which of the 5Cs is unmet? Is

there anything you can do to improve this? What could you ask for

ahead of time? A quiet space? A certain seat? To sit next to a certain

person you feel safe with?

I feel I feel I feel I do not I feel incapable I feel a lack of

uncomfortable disconnected count or belong control

We can also work at reducing stress by doing things that lower our

stress chemicals each week. We will look at that in another session.
