Think about the quarrels and fall-outs taking place in the streets, offices and homes of our towns and cities. When you look down at those places from a higher plane, there is silence, tranquility and calm. Clearly, those conflicts are not resolved by our retreat to a safer place, but they do cease to impact us, and we are refreshed by the break. Escapism is of course unhelpful in the longer term. But what if we could raise our perspective in the midst of those fall-outs and look down at what is happening from an elevated vantage point? Might the unnecessary stress and noise be quietened? May we then respond, rather than react? Say something that soothes, rather than enflames? #raiseperspective #stressmanagement #conflictresolution #respondratherthanreact #solihullwellbeingclinic https://www.instagram.com/p/CI0K-idhMAR/?igshid=4wazwb9gds5c
