Moment with Dr Steve – Number Twenty-eight
Push Reset
I work with troubled, addled and disoriented humans.
Most of them have been through every kind of therapeutic and/or religious intervention you can imagine.
Most of them – struggle with the simplest of things.
Queue – Dr. Steve’s Reset – Rethink – Restart
Here is the process that we drill into multiple times during each session…
When confronted with either your own sassiness, or the inequities of another…
-
Pause – quick actions generally produce horrendous outcomes
-
Step Back – work first to gain – SPACE
-
Breathe – your brain is generally the first to action and the last to work with rationality
-
Use Your Words – start finding words – preferably soothing words – that are pre-installed and oft-repeated that ease your discomforts
-
Find an Adult – search for someone of greater confidence – in that moment – that you feel certain can quiet the setting, and/or help you regain composure
