When you snap at your kids or emotionally spiral and are ruminating and beating yourself up about it at work, strategies for emotional regulation include: (1) treating yourself the way you treat others and being kind to yourself; (2) getting perspective ('get your face out of the candle') to see that one moment was one moment in an entire day and you did not actually ruin everything; (3) understanding that sleep impacts emotional regulation and prioritizing sleep so you are not more dysregulated tomorrow.

“can you say to yourself like it's not my fault and this happened and we are going to move on and we're going to cope from this... get your face out of the candle... you kind of need to step back and get a little perspective like okay this was one moment in an entire day did I actually ruin everything”
