Transcript

Stop for one minute. Sit or stand. Keep your eyes open. If this makes you feel worse, stop. (pause)

Notice how you feel. Name it quietly to yourself, like "this is worry". (pause)

Press your feet into the floor. Breathe out slowly. Let the next breath come by itself. (pause)

Look around. Find three things you can see, and two things you can hear. (pause)

What do you need now? Water, rest, or a stretch? (pause) Now go back to your day.
