Five Anchors
Anchor 1: Soothe yourself to quiet your mind, calm your heart, and settle your body.
Anchor 2: Simply notice the sensations, vibrations, and emotions in your body instead of reacting to them.
Anchor 3: Accept the discomfort—and notice when it changes—instead of trying to flee from it.
Anchor 4: Stay present and in your body as you move through the unfolding experience, with all its ambiguity and uncertainty, and respond from the best parts of yourself.
Anchor 5: Safely discharge any energy that remains.
