CHOOSE A SCENARIO

1. I need to be calm. Optional: Add soothing music from a digital device.

· Find a comfortable seat, close your eyes, and start to take deep breaths. Notice how your body feels and listen to the thoughts that come to your mind. Let your mind go from your thoughts to your breath and listen to the air moving in through your nose and out through your mouth ...slower and slower. Move your mind from your breath to your heartbeat and concentrate on your heartbeat until you feel the stress leave your body.

2. I need to focus. Optional: Add soothing music from a digital device.

· Find a comfortable seat and find a stationary object (your hand will work) to stare at while you do nothing else. Notice every detail of the object to include size, shape, color, and texture. Stare deeper into the object, narrowing to a smaller and smaller part of the object to notice the details until you do not see the object any longer...just a segment of the whole. Slowly bring your mind back to the whole object and release the stare.

3. I need to release. Optional: Add soothing music from a digital device.

· In a safe environment, take a quick walk on a familiar path. Start out by noticing your surroundings to include things you see, hear, and smell. As you take each step, start to notice your breath going in and out of your body until all you notice is your breathing. Slowly bring your attention to your steps, one foot in front of the other, until you can hear only your breathing and your steps. Turn around and head back to your starting point as you focus on the stress releasing from your body.

ADDRESS THESE POINTS

Paragraph 1:

· Describe your experience with your scenario (e.g. Was your interaction with the scenario positive? Why or why not?).

· Did you follow the guidance to the end?

· How long (approximately) did you practice the scenario?

Paragraph 2:

· Would you do the same scenario again in the future? Why or why not?

· Do you have another technique that you use for coping with a certain situation? If so, describe the technique and how you use it.

· Do you want to find other techniques to help you with coping? Why or why not?

· Are there any digital tools that you want to explore to help with coping? Why or why not?

ORGANIZE YOUR POST

· Make sure that you always organize your post into paragraph format with 200+ words.

· Create a conversational flow (e.g. talking to someone) with a scholarly tone (i.e. no text talk or slang, spell and grammar check always using a tool such as Grammarly, etc.).

NEXT STEPS

1. Respond to a peer's post using their first name.

2. Make sure your peer response is 100+ words and uses a conversational flow with a scholarly tone.

3. The goal of your peer post is to move the conversation forward by substantially responding and possibly asking a follow-up question to further the conversation.
