TOP TIP
Here's a top tip I shared on Tuesday that you can try :
Label & Let Go
You can use this when you have a very intense emotion that you want to release it.
⭐️ STEP 1 - Focus on the unwanted emotion you are feeling and label it.
⭐️ STEP 2 - Ask yourself 'CAN I let this feeling go?' Yes or No
⭐️ STEP 3 - Ask yourself 'WILL I let this feeling go?' Yes or No
⭐️ STEP 4 - Ask yourself 'WHEN will I let it go?' - The answer should be 'NOW'
⭐️ STEP 5 - Repeat if needed until the feeling subsides for now.
There is a great way to remember this technique by using a mnemonic -
COOL
WELSH
WATER
equals
CAN
WILL
WHEN
Let me know how it goes...
