Regulating Feelings Quotes

“Sometimes, it is necessary for me to step back from my emotions and my life. I need to be the outsider looking in, sitting in the objective chair, as a witness. As opposed to being so entangled in my feelings, that they become a noose around my neck.”
― Jaeda DeWalt

“Regulated responses to our wants can reduce conflict and promote harmony. As we learn to prioritize and sacrifice less-valuable wants, a sequence of favorable reactions impact our lives and the lives of others in rewarding and positive ways.”
― Scott Shumway, The Invisible Four-letter Word: The Secret to Getting What You Really Want in Life.
