Episode 98 - Mental Health Check In: Practicing Calm Still Becoming with Monica DiCristina

Each month, Still Becoming brings you a Mental Health Check-In episode. These episodes are focused on mental health, emotional health, or personal growth, and involve a short teaching and a few take aways in around 15 to 20 minutes. The idea is to take a therapeutic topic or technique and expand it to help us in our everyday lives.⁣⁣
This month we are talking about the idea of practicing calm. I first heard Brené Brown put the words "practice" and "calm" together recently, and it really resonated with me as a person and as a therapist. I am not a naturally calm person, and practicing calm is very accessible language for what it really looks like to make space in the moment - and in our lives - to choose an emotional response we want over a flooded reaction. I have included some personal and professional thoughts in this episode, with a short experiential moment at the end to practice calm.
