Stress Management through Socratic Questioning
Socratic questioning helps analyze our thoughts regarding a stressful situation and helps us change the way we think about a challenging situation.
Think of a recent experience that was stressful - this may be an event during your role as a first responder or an experience with colleagues/family. In the box below, answer the following questions:
- What is the stressful event?
- What are your thoughts about the event?
- What is the evidence that supports that thought?
- What is the evidence that doesn't support that thought?
- What is a more helpful way to think about this event?
