Stress Management Tips

As Independence Day and the celebration of the birth of our nation quickly approaches, remember that the Fourth of July is a time when well-intentioned fireworks can trigger and increase feelings of anxiety, sadness, fear, and painful memories for persons who have been impacted by trauma.  
 
The following suggestions may help:
 
  • Stay in and make a plan - Prepare in advance by practicing calming strategies such as finding a quiet place, using noise canceling headphones/ear buds, listening to music, or prayer/meditation. If you do go out, plan an exit strategy in the event you begin to feel uncomfortable.
 
  • Talk with others - Giving your family, friends and/or neighbors a quick heads up before they start celebrating with fireworks can help. You can choose how much information to share, but the message really is that if they are planning to set off fireworks to please advise you ahead of time so you can be ready.
 
  • Acclimate now - Many of us have experienced fireworks more often and earlier this year, but for those who haven’t, get yourself used to loud noises by popping corn and bouncing a ball in your home.

​We hope you have a happy and safe holiday!
