I didn’t read a new chapter this week. Instead, I worked through the skills review and did some rereading. These are the skills we should have added to our toolbox, so far.
- Learning to be Present
- Developing and use Anchors in the present
- Managing stress via relaxation exercises
- Overcoming the phobia of inner experience
- Reflecting on an Inner Experience (and doing it regularly)
- Communicating with parts of yourself about current issues in daily life
- Developing empathy toward a part of yourself
- Accomplishing a common task or goal with the cooperation of your parts
- Developing an inner sense of safety and a safe place
- Building and using a sleep kit and bedtime routine
- Developing a realistic and healthy daily/weekly routine
- Mastering next level relaxation exercises
- Developing and using a relaxation kit
- Making a healthy change in physical self-care
- Making a plan for improving an eating problem
I’ve not done all of it, but the steps I have taken are paying off. I hope you’re getting something out of it too.
