This morning’s hot topic<\/a> (literally and figuratively)…<\/p>\n

“Alaska’s Mt. Redoubt volcano<\/a> erupted late Monday and early Tuesday in “four large explosions,” sending an ash plume an estimated 50,000 feet into the air, the Alaska Volcano Observatory<\/a> reported.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

… brought to mind our inner volcanoes. You know, that piece of us that gets overly reactive when set off; that piece that spews anger and loses control!
\nBefore you blow a fuse, spew hot lava from your inner-volcano, try on these
\n“Tips to Tame Mount Redoubt”<\/strong><\/em> …
\nTip #1: NOTICE<\/strong>: Be aware of what is triggering your anger and rather than going straight to spewing, put your feelings into words so that you can ‘act’ rather than ‘react.’
\nTip #2: STOP<\/strong>: Give yourself at least one minute to ‘neutralize.’ Take in a few deep cleansing breaths. Ahhhhh.
\nTip #3: THINK<\/strong>: Consider at least three potential solutions to the problem; and then consider their outcomes.
\nTip #4: CHOOSE<\/strong>: Now that you have ‘noticed’ what is going on; stopped to give yourself a moment to ‘neutralize,’ and ‘thought’ threw a few options; Choose a course of action!
\nTip #5: WALK AWAY<\/strong>: Remember that walking way from a conflict is always an option. Saying nothing; doing nothing is sometimes the more powerful approach – the smartest path to take.
\nTip #6: SEEK HELP<\/strong>: If you find that you are frequently in ‘volcano’ mode, perhaps you might consider reaching out to a profession that can help you work it through in an appropriate way and setting!
\nTip #7: DO NOT STUFF IT<\/strong>: Food is NOT the answer. Stuffing down your feelings will not help. Write it out (as mentioned above). Talk it out (with a counselor or a trusted friend). Scribble it out, doodle it out, sing it out, let it out!!!
\nSpread the word … NOT the icing!
