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!
