So I experienced distress over not getting this magical hair that people talk about.

Oh, dang.

Sorry.

I have to find other meaning.

Okay, the P stands for prayer.

The P stands for prayer.

And here you could pray to God if that's something that you do.

But we also want this to be something that anyone could do, no matter how religious or spiritual they are.

And so we also say pray to your own self, to your own inner wisdom, to ask for support and guidance and to give yourself love.

R is relaxation.

Yeah, it's saying in this moment that's really challenging for me, I'm going to intentionally do something that makes me feel a little calm and actually gives me a sense of pleasure in some small way.

So what's my favorite coffee drink or my favorite tea that I can just sit quietly and drink?

Can I take a relaxing shower or a bath?

Can I take five minutes to just lay in bed and relax?

Yeah, so often when we're in high distress or we're freaking out about something, our mind is in a million different places.

And in order to help us feel a little better in this one moment, what we try to do is to say, throw yourself completely into just one thing.

For example, you're practicing relaxation by having a cup of tea.

Just do that, right?

And when you start having thoughts about what's going to come next, let that go and bring your attention back.

Exactly.
