Your Assignment Listeners:

Think about a conflict situation. When you think about it or are confronted by it pay attention to your body. Do a body scan. Where does the stress get triggered in your body? What thoughts or emotions come up for you? Which of those thoughts are played from old tapes or as Anna would say your ANTS (“Automatic Negative Thoughts). What would make you feel better about this? What are some ways to reduce the physical stress and feel better?

Remember accessing the thinking part of your brain is important to cooling down your reaction to conflict. So consider journaling or writing about the above assignment.
