I promise it’s not the 4-6th grade songs

It’s astounding, how intense is this feeling Anger is building up, you need some healing But listen closely, there’s a way to do it Feel the power, keep control, work on
through it
Instead of those wild, knee-jerk reactions You gotta catch your own attention Emotions come calling
Instead of just falling
To brawling, name calling, or whining and bawling
Chorus:
Stop, name your feeling, calm down Stop, name your feeling, calm down
(Stop! Give yourself a signal like stop, chill, hold up, hang on)
You send a signal to yourself then stop!
(Okay, now name the feeling. Are you angry? Embarrassed? Worried? Scared? Figure it out and name it.)
Just name that feeling, it’s just the thing It slows you down and makes you think And then you start to calm right down By just breathing, using self-talk
or counting
(And a-one, two, three) Chorus
(Remember this: When you have strong feelings like anger, fear, or jealousy, before they take over, you take that power. Emotions don’t drive you. You have the key!)
By slowing it down and feeling your power
And naming your particular feeling You’re stopping the landslide
You’re taking that deep breath
Saying good things: “You can do this!” And now you’re in control!
