KC: Even though he frustrates me to no end and then I get angry---I honor and acknowledge my feelings
KC: Even though it feels like I’m out of control when I get angry---I honor and acknowledge my feelings
KC: Even though I feel angry every time I think of him---I honor and acknowledge my feelings
EB: I don’t like losing control
SE: I hate that he triggers my anger and frustration
UE: It worries me that I lose control when I have to deal with him
UN: I understand the anger is a trigger
CH: An access point to what is really bothering me
CB: A signal that something has to change
UA: I can’t change him
TH: I can change my reaction over time as I tap
EB: He pushes my buttons
SE: I go into reaction
UE: He enjoys it
UN: I know he does
CH: What is wrong with me
CB: It’s just his point of view on how I should live
UA: I don’t have to agree
TH: I can tune him out and feel sorry for his having
EB: a limited point of view
SE: He can’t help it
UE: I can see what he’s going to do before he does it
UN: So, I can shut it down by just acknowledge that I heard him
CH: Acknowledge that “that’s an interesting point of view you have “
CB: and “thanks for sharing”
UA: I can then do what I need to do
TH: I refuse to be held hostage by his point of view
Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh
CB: He comes from this “broken record point of view” --- all I need to do is notice it, acknowledge it, and go on my merry way---cause acknowledging does not mean I agree
When the limiting thoughts come back tap on the UE and say or think: “I am committed to a happy life and letting his point of view just be a point of view---next”
