After World War II, psychology became a science. The focus of interventions was on weakness. The emphasis on weakness led to the birth of the disease model. After several years of mental health professionals concentrating on the weakness of patients, the World Health Organization challenged the disease model assumptions were challenged -If sadness was eliminated, would joy or happiness evolve? Significant inequalities existed in the disease model approach to helping patients achieve a healthy lifestyle. A new approach is needed to explore concentrating on strengths, which leads to the Health and Wellness model. Current research supports a significant increase in mental health interventions for stress, anxiety, and depression. I hope to challenge your assumptions with this podcast. Building on strengths, changing perspectives of tragic life-changing events, and creating positivity from experiences will require new blueprints of stress management. My goal is not to convince you to change. My goal is to offer research-based evidence information that supports change is needed.

In this episode, Eartha will present details about responding to microaggressions. The first part of the podcast includes a guide on the differences between responding and reacting. Please keep in mind that reacting has the word ACTing in it. Our dramatic movements and unbridled thoughts may lead to acting in ways that may not reflect who we are when we are calm, relaxed, and collected. After the “strong feeling blowout,” we may reminisce and find that we could have done things differently. However, what was said is out, and what has been exposed.

Responding takes excellent strength. Responding means we pause, take a micro-break, and breathe. This allows our thoughts and emotions to calm down and regain composure. Researching the best way to respond mindfully during this time may be helpful. At the very least, we can use the micro-break to breathe. 

Research supports that the best way to disarm microaggressions is by mirroring the aggressors, comments. This helps put space in the conversation, and it helps to reflect to the aggressor how they are communicating. Reflecting is not your words; it is your words.

When we approach microaggression using mindfulness techniques, we can look at the aggressor objectively and maintain our healthy lifestyles.
