Core 2 DBT skills 1

When

Any ordinary day 2 Under stress 1

When a feeling pushes you to hide or lash out and it does not fit the facts, gently do the opposite.

Fear says withdraw; step forward. Anger says strike; soften. When the urge misfits reality, act against it.

A minuteAct on your valuesDBT skillsQur’an 23:96

Ask what kind of person you want to be here, then take one small step that way, even while afraid.

Feelings are loud; values are quieter and truer. Let the step you take answer to the values, not the fear.

Five minutesAct on your valuesCoreQur’an 91:9

When you feel low and stuck, do the next small worthy thing anyway. Action moves mood, not the reverse.

Do not wait to feel like it. One small good act, then another, is how the heaviness starts to lift.
