Use the following instruction to help children deal with difficult emotions. It works beautifully. … in fact, it can be any word he or she chooses.
And after he/she has chosen a special magic word to make the difficult feelings go away, you can say:
“To turn your magic word on,
All you have to do is say your magic word 3 times …
and turn around three times …
and jump up and down three times …
and it will automatically TURN YOUR MAGIC WORD ON.
“And then … ta da … once your magic word is turned on …
every time you use it in order to FEEL GOOD …
it will make you FEEL HAPPY, RELAXED AND CALM …
and it will remind you that you are THE COOLEST KID …
and that YOUR mother and father love you enormously.
“OK _________ , now, turn your magic word on.”
“Try this, it really works!”
