Episode Synopsis

In this very personal episode, Dr. Shaw examines what happens when we have a negative reaction.  She shares a situation when she experienced a moment of internal panic.  She points out that the moment passed quickly, and that occurred because she let the emotions flow.  The negativity was discharged by simply letting it go.  A major strategy that allowed the moment to pass was that she allowed herself to fully react without suppressing the feelings.  Because the emotions were turned loose, they didn't linger and fester.  When parenting, it's important to have our children's feelings be allowed to come out for the same reason.  There are ways to have "the crazies" come out in a productive and not a destructive way.  Another important strategy to get through a negative situation is self-observation because watching ourselves gives us the power to overcome the negativity.
