3 Phrases You Should Tell Yourself When You’re Stressed at Work

The thesis of “healthy affirmations” was formulated by the American psychologist Audrey Tang

American psychologist Audrey Tang has gone viral on the Internet after creating a video that teaches how to “refresh” yourself after a stressful day at work. According to the expert, only 3 sentences are needed. They should be:

• “I can’t save people from themselves.”
• “Even though I can’tI can’t control anything else, I can control my breathing.”
• “I don’t need to listen to the opinion of someone whose advice I wouldn’t ask.”

According to the psychologist, it is “a great way to find free space without having to calm down”.

Dr. Tang is not alone in advocating this theory. Researchers At UC Berkeley, they recruited more than 100 people to test whether self-compassionate touch, which involves placing your hands on your chest, could improve mental health.

The researchers also explored whether repeating affirmations like “I can be my friend right now” also banishes fear and doubt. Study author Eli Susma described the exercise as “a practice of being a thoughtful friend to yourself by reflecting on moments that evoke being hard on yourself.”
