If anyone else’s child resembles 👺👹👿😾😡💩 Trust me you are not alone!!! It is the season for children to be wired, tired, full of Christmas goodies, on endless sugar come downs and not quite able to contain their excitement for the big man that they started getting excited about in November... their patience is wearing thin! However knowing all this it didn’t stop me crying yesterday when my boy pushed every button he could possibly push with incredible sass attitude! He did come and give me a hug when I was sat upstairs - no words just a huge hug which instantly made it better. We both teared up - gave each other a reassuring nod. My patience and Energy is once again reset to last me until after Christmas! You’ve got this I promise! You are not alone - talk to someone - talk to me - it’s ok to admit your child is hard work it doesn’t mean you don’t love them with every bit of your heart, body and soul! You are human. As parents we’ve got each other’s back! 💕 #managingemotions #ilovemykids #angrychild #christmasistoomuchfun #littlelegsltd #youvegotthis https://www.instagram.com/p/BrcKDMthWSI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dzs86ttju1t2

Managing Emotions
Do you ever find yourself worrying about things that aren’t in your control? Or perhaps getting unreasonably or irrationally angry with family, or other drivers? Maybe you notice yourself finding things funny at the wrong time, or laughing too long at a simple joke? These are amongst some of the signs that our emotions are getting the better of us.
We recently did a study with our school students to see how well they managed their anger. 100% of them said their anger had got them into trouble. 65% of them said they were unsure or didn’t know how to calm themselves down once they were angry. Anger is just one of the emotions that they have to deal with on any given day.
These students are not alone! The emotional part of our brain is the limbic system and is more active than the prefrontal cortex - the part of our brain that does the ‘thinking’. It isn’t a surprise that so many of us struggle to get control over one or more of our emotions.
When our emotions are out of control, it can impact our choices, our behavior and even our mental health, leading to things like depression and anxiety. But we don’t have to stay in this place! Here are some of our best tips for getting control of your emotions:
Remember you are not your emotions.
Emotions come and go. We cannot stop that, but we are in control of how we deal with them. It is important we don’t allow ourselves to be defined by what we are feeling.
Identify the emotions you are experiencing.
The first step in dealing with our emotions is naming them as we experience them, and then noting where and when they happen. By taking inventory like this, even writing them down can help you to see the patterns and triggers you may not have noticed before.
Question why you are feeling the way you are.
What are the thoughts that come along with your emotions? Usually, how we feel about a situation is caused by how we are thinking about it. Often these thoughts aren’t reflective of reality, and working on seeing things how they are can help us find the solution.
Refocus and gain control.
Do what you need to do you need to do to get yourself in check. If you are thinking unrealistically or negatively about something, how can you change to a positive perspective? What are the triggers or situations you need to avoid? Just taking a moment to breathe and think before you respond can completely change how you deal with a situation. Recognize what is out of your hands and focus you attention on what is in your control.
Choose your response.
You cannot control the emotions you will experience, but you can choose how you react. Our responses tend to be habits we have developed over time and so they can be hard to break - it will take practice and time. Taking a moment to make a choice will make you feel empowered, in control and more likely to react in the right way.
Getting in control of our emotions will ultimately lead to our stress levels coming down and therefore, a healthier and happier life. Our emotions won’t ever go away, but they don’t need to rule over us.
Feelings are something you have; not something you are.

3 Questions to Manage your Emotions: The Bible says in 1 Peter 4:2, “From now on, then, you must live the rest of your earthly lives controlled by God’s will and not by human desires ” (GNT) What are human desires? They’re your emotions and your affections. Once you become a Christ-follower, your life should be controlled by God’s will, not by how you feel. Let me give you three questions to ask about your emotions when you’re trying to figure out how to deal with how you feel. When you’re angry or upset or frustrated — whatever you’re feeling — ask yourself: 1. “What’s the real reason I’m feeling this?” Maybe the answer is fear or worry. Maybe it relates to something someone said to you years ago that was never resolved. 2. “Is it true?” Is what you’re feeling at that moment true? There’s a point in the Bible where Elijah got so discouraged that he went to God and complained, “God, I’m the only one in the entire nation of Israel left serving you.” And God challenged him, saying, “Are you kidding me? I’ve got all these people who are still serving me! You’re acting like you’re the only one trying to do the right thing in the whole world! No. That’s not true.” 3. “Is what I’m feeling helping me or hurting me?” Will you get what you want by continuing to feel this way? A lot of feelings we have seem natural, but they’re actually self-defeating. Let’s say you go to a restaurant, and the service is extremely slow. You wait a long time to be served, and then a couple comes in 15 minutes after you and gets their food before you do. You get increasingly more irritated until you feel something welling up inside you. What’s the real reason you’re feeling that way? You’re hungry! Is it true? Yes. You’re frustrated because the service is slow. But is your emotion helping or hurting? It’s hurting. Do you get better service by getting angry with the server? Absolutely not. Does nagging work? Has it ever worked? When somebody tells you all the things you’re doing wrong, does it make you want to change? No! All it does is make you defensive. When you ask yourself these three questions, you get a better grip on why you feel the way you do and what you need to do to help the situation. That’s called managing your emotions. 💭 ▶️ Why is it hard to sometimes admit that an emotion you think you feel isn’t actually true? ▶️ Think of a recent experience where you felt angry or frustrated with someone. How do you think asking these three questions could have changed the outcome of the incident? ▶️ What do you think it means to be controlled by God’s will?
