Family difficulties can be very stressful because they are not easily or quickly resolved and may be largely out of our control.
Here’s a “Rethink:” Rather than imagining the worst-case outcome, put situations into a perspective of “the most likely outcome.” This causes us to use the analytical side of our mind rather than the creative or emotional side, allowing for the proper flow of cortisol and serotonin which provides more rational thinking for a broader viewpoint.
For more information go to the “Family Adjustment Scale and Competencies” in the Training Library at CSAPerspective.com
