Star POWER

 

P=Physiology

 

How you carry your body 
What you ingest

 

O=Oxygen

 

Taking a couple of deep breaths to:

1. Increase oxygen to the brain

2. Help in stress relief

3. Help move the toxins out of our bodies through the lymp system

4. Allow us to take a moment before saying or doing something we can't take back

 

Great uses:

• before a potentially stressful event - test, walking across the stage at graduation, asking someone out on a date, big game

 

W  =Words

 

Words matter
Everthing is energy

 

Be careful of negative words - especially can't

 

Instead of saying, "I always go blank on a test" say "I'll think of it in a minute".  Instead of your brain creating a blind spot, a scotoma, it opens the door to the what you've already learned.

 

Word swaps

problem ->  challenge  

I have to -> I get to (makes you feel priviledged) 

                  I choose to (makes you not the victim)

 

Watch out for Drama words

"That's killing me!"

"He stabbed me in the back."

 

Power Phrases

  "I got this!"

  "I love my life!"

  "Good morning, gorgeous!"

  "Everthiing is laways working out for me!"

 

E=Envision

 

Einstein "Your imagination is more powerful than your intellect" 

 

See your life the way you'd like it to be in your imagination as often as you can.  Then take a small step each day towards making your goals happen.

 

Imagine with all your senses yourself doing well

• on a test

• when you're about to walk across the stage at graduation

• at a critical moment in a game

• when you're about to ask someone on a date

• when you're going to do something potentially stressful

 

90% of what you worry about never happens

 

R=Realize

 

Realize that you have the ability to shine any time you want, even if:

• your parents are divorced

• someone tries to bully you

• a tough situation comes up
