about what caused the feelingand how you dealt with it?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Wow, that's insightful.
You have to analyze yourselfhow you react.
Maybe there are other ways tohandle things.
It's like you're a detectivefor your own feelings.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
That's it.
And over time you start to seepatterns.
You can learn to handle thingsbetter, manage those emotions.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
You know, this reminds me of a time let me see
how can I explain this.
It was a while back, but thisprompt made me think of it.
It was maybe, oh, like 10 yearsago, and I was dealing with,
well, a lot of stress at work,you know, and I would just react
, you know, not thinking, justgoing with it Just in the moment
(08:26):
reacting.
Exactly, and it never went well.
Yeah, but if I had this promptback then, describe a time today
when you felt a negativeemotion I would have.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Maybe I would have paused, thought about why I was
feeling that way, maybe youcould have chosen a different
way to respond Right, instead ofjust, you know, reacting
without thinking.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
It's hard, though, sometimes to step back in the
moment.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Oh for sure.
But that's what makes theseprompts so useful.
They give you that space tothink about your feelings
outside of the situation.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Like a reminder.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, a nudge to be more aware.
Okay, let's move on to focusingon growth.
These are all about learningfrom our experiences, right?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
They help you be more intentional about how you grow
as a person.
There's this one that I reallyconnect with.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
What did you learn about yourself today, even in a
small way?
I like that one because itshows that growth doesn't have
to be this huge thing.
It could be those littlemoments where you realize
something new about yourself.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Exactly those small changes in how you see things.
They add up over time.
For sure there's another one, Ithink you'll like it.
What conversation you had todaycould teach you something about
communication?
So every conversation it's achance to learn and grow.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Oh, that's so true.
We can learn so much from howwe talk to people and how they
respond to us.
Okay, let's move on to the lastsection, celebrating the
present.
This one brings us back togratitude and mindfulness, right
.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Absolutely.
It's about savoring the littlethings and being fully present
in your life.
This one really speaks to me.
Describe a moment today whenyou felt a sense of peace or
contentment.
What made it special?
It encourages you to noticethose subtle but profound
moments of happiness that weoften take for granted.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
It's about appreciating the everyday,
finding those moments of peaceand joy amidst the chaos.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Exactly, and Lestallion really emphasizes the
power of this practice.
They talk about how cultivatingpresent moment awareness,
combined with gratitude, canlead to a more fulfilling and
meaningful life.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
It's like a recipe for happiness, starting with
gratitude, embracing creativity,navigating emotions, focusing
on growth and celebrating thepresent.
It's truly inspiring.
