When You Are SCARED . . .

ALL feelings are OKAY means it's natural to feel them . . . but they don't all FEEL OKAY to feel . . . like when you are scared?!😱  When you are scared, your heart beats faster, your muscles tense up, stomach digestion slows down, your skin gets blotchy or red, the hair raises on your arms, your hands shake, the pupils of your eyes dilate so you get "tunnel vision," your ears experience loss of hearing . . . yuck.  What do you do when you are scared?

Edvard Munch painted.  He painted The Scream in 1893 to express unpleasant feelings, specifically the feelings of terror and confusion.  He PAINTED the feelings.  How can you put your feelings on paper with art?  Use crayons, markers, colored pencils, paint sticks, oil pastels, or watercolors to get out what you feel inside. . . (1) nobody gets hurt (2)nothing gets broken -- It's one thing you can do when you are scared. #managefeelingswell #mrsbroamhats
