Mastering Calm: Habits and Strategies for Stressful Situations.

People who remain calm under pressure have certain habits that help them stay relaxed. They prioritize their wellbeing, remind themselves that they're not alone, try to let go of control, ask themselves if something is really important, avoid catastrophizing, tell themselves that everything is temporary, self-soothe, believe they're more than what they do, find beauty and humor in every situation, and have multiple sources of security. These habits can be learned and practiced to become a calmer person.
