PATIENCE q During holidays and celebrations everyone feels very emotional (it is an exciting and busy time). q Patience can help families get on over the holidays: - If parents/ carers are busy making a meal/ getting things ready we can use patience to wait until they are ready. - We can wait to give/ receive gifts until everyone is ready so they can enjoy them without feeling rushed. Q: How will you show Patience over the holiday? Q: What Values does Patience link to?
Ways to stay PATIENT 1) Put it into perspective (is it really important you have it now? ) 2) Use Empathy to work out how the other person feels. 3) Do something else (distract yourself).
PATIENCE 2. Staying calm and not becoming annoyed (losing patience).
Understanding how your mind works… Dr Steve Peters http: //chimpmanagement. com/
The Chimp 2 parts of the brain The Human
The Chimp • Emotional thinking • Action based on feelings • You have to learn to control it The Human • Logical thinking • Looks for the truth and facts • Action based on calm thoughts
Over reacts Jumps quickly to an opinion Can be ‘paranoid’ (worries about things that aren’t real’) Doesn’t wait for all the information Very quick to judge Emotional Can twist the facts to suit its opinion Your CHIMP can be very
Thinks calmly Open minded, sees others points of view Uses reasoning skills to work things out Uses ‘common sense’ - is rational Looks for the truth and facts, then acts on this Searches for all the relevant information Logical The HUMAN part is PATIENT
Both parts of the brain react to every situation – but in different ways. Both are thinking what to do about it – but some of the time they don’t agree. The Chimp is more powerful than the Human and will win – UNLESS you have learnt how to manage it!
The Chimp is an emotional machine that will take over if you allow it to. It is not good or bad – it is a Chimp! The Human must learn to recognise when the Chimp is in charge. Don’t try to control it – but learn to manage it!
Building Patience • Some things make us lose our patience. • Look deeply at yourself. Is something causing you to lose your patience? (e. g. being short of time, tired or worried) • Knowing your triggers can help you control yourself and stop you from losing your patience. .
Mrs Barlow and Patience Mrs Barlow sometimes loses her Patience when the children aren’t ready on time for home. Why? - She doesn’t want the parents/ carers to be cross the children are late as she knows they are busy people - It is the end of the day and she is tired - Some children made them late by talking
PATIENCE What makes you lose your patience?
What does your body/ mind feel like when you lose your PATIENCE?
How do you make other people feel when you lose your PATIENCE?
Let’s think about some ways to help yourself when you need more PATIENCE? STOP! Take some deep breaths Talk to someone you trust Move out of the situation until you are calm Think of solutions
Mrs Barlow and Patience Mrs Barlow sometimes loses her Patience when the children aren’t ready on time for home. Solution: • Mrs Barlow could do deep breaths • Mrs Barlow could give them more time • Mrs Barlow could remind herself its not her fault if the children are late • Mrs Barlow could give TP or GT for those who are ready
PATIENCE How could you solve the situations that make you lose your PATIENCE?
Patience and Celebrations The holidays can be very stressful - Spending lots of time at home with family compared to normal - Stressful for parents/ carers (money and time) - Can also feel disappointment (not able to do what want to do or don’t get what want). - But the holidays are a time to be with the ones we love and we want to make them happy too.
A quiet moment of prayer or reflection. . . PATIENCE
A prayer for all of us Here in our school Let us be peaceful at all times. Let our rooms be full of happiness and respect for each other. Let love be in our hearts With kindness and compassion for all. Let us remember In learning together, We grow together And succeed together.
