Have you ever wondered why you sometimes lose control? Here is a video to help explain what goes on in your brain during those times:
What do you notice in your body when you start to flip your lid? Do your cheeks feel warm, or do your hands start to clench up into fists?
Whatever it looks like, those are the clues your body is giving you that you are about to flip your lid and your "downstairs brain" is taking over. That means it's time to use a healthy coping strategy to calm down so that your "upstairs brain" can help you make some good choices.
Love,
Ms. DePoint, Mrs. Konrad, and Mrs. Sperrazza
