Grateful

I feel thankful for a moment today…friendlover played with the boys, it’s not the first time, but today I had a few moments to myself, I actually got to eat alone, no rush, not leftovers, but the meal we all made together… And it was peaceful and I really got to enjoy and savor the moment by myself
It would be lovely if I did get to spend a few minutes each day to be grateful for the little moments I get.
😄

Respecting Emotion & Regulating Emotion: An Introduction to Checking the Facts

Emotions are like a sixth sense because like sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell, they give us important information about our environment that we need to survive. What makes emotions so special is that they help us to act quickly when logical thought is too slow for us to engage in problem-solving. (See Situations below.) However, for people who may be unusually emotionally reactive, sensitive, or have learned to judge or invalidate their emotional sixth sense from culture, values, gender roles, parents, family, loved ones, etc., emotions may not always cause the expected effective response. Therefore, dialectical behavior therapy came up with the skill checking the facts to help us figure out if our emotional responses fit the facts and intensity of a situation and whether an unwanted or distressing emotion needs skills toward accepting and changing or skills toward accepting and tolerating.
