Brooke,

I know that thoughts come first, but when dealing with the children during difficult times, it really does feel like feelings come up so very quickly, not leaving a lot of time to consider the thinking patterns. At the end of the first call you suggested that we practice how we want to feel with the person ahead of time even when they are acting out….could you speak more to that? In the moment, I am so quick to feel irritable, angry, upset, almost like the feelings come first. Thank you 🙂
