Chin up! It’s not all that bad! When you get unexpected news that is less than ideal, remember the basics.

First is your breath. Are you breathing erratically? Or is your breathing calm? If not the latter, take the time to make it so by taking in a few deep breaths.

Second is your posture. Are you slouching? Is your back straight? Is your neck straight? If not, stand in front of a mirror in a power pose for a few seconds, minutes if you can.

Lastly, well for now, chin up. Think forward, starting with your chin! You’ll be amazed at how your body follows suit!
