DETACHING:
~
Sometimes people we love do things we don't like or approve of. We
react. They react. Before long, we're all reacting to each other.
When do we detach? When we're hooked into a reaction of anger,
fear, guilt, or shame. When the way we're reacting isn't helping the
other person or solving the problem.
The first step toward detachment is understanding that reacting
and controlling don't help. The next step is getting peaceful –
getting centered and restoring our balance.
Take a walk. Leave the room. Go to a meeting. Take a long, hot
bath. Call a friend. Call on God. Breathe deeply. Find peace. From
that place of peace and centering will emerge an answer, a solution.
