The oil of Adaptability:

Adaptiv was formulated to assist with anxious states. It imparts reassurance and calm when one is caught in cycles of constriction, tension, worry solicitude or uneasiness. When individuals have experienced prolonged stress or traumatic experiences, the mind-body responds by becoming hypervigilant in order to protect them from future harm. Adaptiv Blend helps individuals adapt to stressors and fears in more clear, constructive, and confident ways. 

 

Feedback from group and coach: The emotional coach commented for the participant to think about the following: when she wasn’t having her needs met, how does she act out? Example: were you more sarcastic or withholding, when you didn't get what you were expecting. The Emotional Coach commented that in the past, she would stonewall (avoid/ignore) the person she was angry with by not talking when her needs or expectations were not met. The Emotional Coach shared that she was proud of the participant for feeling her feelings and if you are aware of behavior that is a win!
