Here's how you can enhance your ability to manage your own emotions in high-pressure situations.

Imagine-se como um ninja emocional em meio ao caos de um campo de batalha. Para melhorar sua capacidade de gerenciar emo??es sob alta press?o, você precisa treinar sua mente como um mestre das artes marciais: respire profundamente e concentre-se no agora, transformando a respira??o em uma arma secreta que acalma a tempestade interna. Pratique a medita??o e o mindfulness como seu dojo diário, onde cada sess?o é um passo em dire??o ao equilíbrio. Visualize-se como uma montanha inabalável, resistente aos ventos furiosos das emo??es externas, mantendo a clareza mental e o foco. Cultive a autoempatia, entendendo que até os guerreiros mais destemidos têm momentos de vulnerabilidade, e use isso para fortalecer sua resiliência emocional.

SWOT helps us a lot in such situations. Introspecting our weakness in terms of reactions, emotions and our fears is the first step. Not only recognising these but admitting them will tell us when to excuse ourselves from the situations or how to react. Most important it will guide us how to avoid them when we present something or are going to head a discussion. Lastly if at all we get stuck, we must have a plan or we must have worked on behaviour as to cause of the same.

Preparing for emotional regulation has to be a continuous practice, not just something done in difficult situations. Consider it like training for a marathon: you wouldn't wait until race day to start running. Just as consistent training builds the strength and endurance needed to perform well in a marathon, regular practice of emotional regulation builds the resilience and stability needed to handle stress effectively. By integrating these practices into your daily routine, you ensure that you're always ready to face challenges with composure and clarity, rather than scrambling to cope when pressure mounts.

Reflect on past experiences to recognize specific comments, people, or events that provoke emotional reactions. Understanding these triggers is essential for anticipating and preparing for them.

One size does not fit all in stress management - while becoming aware of the breath can slow things down, noticing anything in the body, especially the breath can be triggering during, say a panic attack for some neurotypes - an alternative, is to look around the periphery - this kickstarts the orientation response - naming 5 red things, 4 blue things, 3 green things, 2 yellow things and one pink thing - for example, is a really quick way to slow down the breathing.

La manière dont vous interprétez une situation peut grandement influencer vos émotions. Voici comment re-cadrer les pensées négatives en perspectives plus positives ou constructives : - Identifiez les pensées négatives automatiques qui surgissent dans des situations stressantes. Par exemple, "Je vais échouer" ou "Tout le monde va me juger." - évaluez objectivement les preuves qui soutiennent ou contredisent ces pensées. Par exemple, "Quels faits montrent que je vais vraiment échouer ?" Souvent, les pensées négatives sont basées sur des peurs irrationnelles plut?t que sur des réalités. - Remettez en question vos pensées négatives en vous demandant si elles sont vraiment vraies : "Est-ce que tout le monde va vraiment me juger ?"

El replanteamiento positivo es una técnica transformadora que nos permite enfrentar situaciones estresantes con una nueva perspectiva. Aplicar esta estrategia me ayuda a reducir la ansiedad y a mejorar mi rendimiento, viendo cada desafío como una oportunidad para crecer y aprender.

If you need help with this, or it sounds fake in your head or veering into "toxic positivity" territory - in other words, if you struggle with objectivity, seek a trusted other. They can help mirror it back to you, co-regulation is a great way to regulate your nervous system.

Establecer límites claros es fundamental para mantener nuestra estabilidad emocional y profesional. Reconocer y comunicar mis límites me permite manejar las demandas de manera efectiva, evitar el estrés y el agotamiento, y mantener un equilibrio saludable. Al decir “no” a lo que no se ajusta a mis objetivos y valores, puedo decir “sí” a las oportunidades que enriquecen mi carrera y benefician a mis clientes.

So here's the thing - if you struggle with recognizing boundary violations until after it has happened, chances are you may also be guilty of doing this to others - because boundaries are a two-way street. Building better body awareness - i.e. where you start and end, is a great way to bring somatic awareness, especially if you are highly empathetic. Weighted blankets, and resistance exercises are a great way to build this (and the nervous system gradually makes this connection).

La práctica de la empatía hacia uno mismo y hacia los demás es fundamental para manejar las emociones en situaciones estresantes de manera saludable y efectiva. Aplicar la empatía mejora las interacciones con clientes y colegas, creando un ambiente de apoyo mutuo. Además, la autocompasión fortalece la resiliencia personal, permitiéndome enfrentar los desafíos con una perspectiva más equilibrada y comprensiva. Estas cualidades no solo benefician mi bienestar, sino que también son esenciales para proporcionar un servicio de calidad y mantener relaciones profesionales sólidas.

There are many who struggle with too much empathy - vividly experiencing another's experience as if it is your own - this is the other side of it, practice containing empathy so it is constructive. If this describes you then your work is not to improve empathy - your work is to sit with the discomfort long enough to differentiate between what's happening to you vs others.

In high-pressure situations, it's crucial to take a moment to focus on yourself. Recognize your feelings, take a few deep breaths, identify the emotion, and understand its impact on you. As long as you have controlled your emotion, whether mild or severe, shift to a more objective perspective, identify what you can control within the situation, and reframe your perception of it through an impartial lens to determine the best course of action. This approach can lead to a more effective response rather than an emotional reaction that might exacerbate the situation.

Go out and take a walk or go for a jog or do yoga. Take deep breaths while doing so. Exercise helps relieve pressure and find your inner balance. If it becomes too much, you need to set your boundaries or make suggestions for improvement. Complaining doesn't change anything. But you can learn from less-than-ideal processes, address them, and improve them. Avoid making accusations as this leads to defensiveness. Only speak about your own feelings and what the situation does to you. Then propose how to improve it and discuss it with your boss.
