Well done Eric. I like how you hold a magnifying glass at those GULP moments. The third point on trusting your body is astute and something I struggle with. My reflex is to get in my head when I panic, but I'm going to experiment with "dropping down." Thanks and great connecting.
It's also one I find hard, and I'd say it was impossible before I started practising yoga many years ago. That was my introduction into being mindful and present, and every new tip and technique I've learned since then gives me a little more capacity to "drop down" with less effort.
Great reflections and insights on coaching under pressure, Eric - love the equanimity equation..and can reinforce that you are a composed and dynamic coach who is there in the moment while responding in attunement with your clients.
I love that equanimity equation too, especially when we think about the choices we have => to be calm and curious in not knowing, or to flap about and panic.
Noticing and catching ourselves in that flapping about state turns the key to unlock that choice.
For me, I've found that taking action is my best remedy in this situation. Which, is often the last thing I want to do, as my default is to sit and overthink.
