As best we can, we must learn to manage our impulses every waking moment of our lives. The arousal energy of our impulses can be skillfully modulated with an awareness that is relaxed, alert, and stable. Give yourself the ‘space’ to simply notice before you speak or act. In this ‘space’, we allow our awareness to see what is arising consciously and objectively. From “here”, we can make better choices that are more responsive and less reactive.
