BREAK ONE RULE · RULE #1
The rule: I should just be grateful.
YOUR MOVE
Breathe out longer than you breathe in.
Before you answer that comment, step away for one minute. Breathe in for 4, out for 6 to 8. Do it five times. Then decide what you want to say, if anything.
WHY IT WORKS
A long exhale tells your nervous system you're safe, and that turns the heat down fast. You still get to be mad. You just get to choose what happens next.
WHERE THIS STOPS WORKING
If the rage shows up daily and feels way bigger than what set it off, bring it up with your provider. Hormone shifts can drive it, and you deserve real support.
Did it? Tell me.
Hit reply to this week's email with two words: I did. I read every one.
