My T encourages exercise and mindfulness. I can't say I'm particularly cooperative about either of them. I suppose I've come up with my own way of being mindful, of not trying to suppress my emotions (which was my old MO), but instead just accepting my emotions for what they are instead of fighting them. I find they subside more readily if left to ride their course. He has worked a great deal with me in being able to share my emotions, particularly with my husband. The CBT techniques I have learned have been invaluable in reality checking my emotions so that I can really see where intense feelings are coming from and can put them in perspective if my own skewed thinking has led to distress. Kind of a smorgasbord of coping strategies I guess.
