INTRODUCTION
We already knew about your reactions to the pandemic or any form of
disaster. Today, we will talk about how to manage your feelings.
ACTIVITY # 1
Direction: Write inside the column A your emotions and in column B on how to
manage your emotions.
A B
Example: Scared Listening to worship songs.
ACTIVITY # 2
1. Count backwards.
Direction: If you feel that you are getting more upset or stressed or anxious or nervous. You
can ask to be excused or you can just close your eyes, or turn around and just silently, count
backwards from 10 until 1. While doing so, focus on your breathing and tell yourself to calm
down.
2. Reframe.
Direction: This means that a feeling usually comes from a thought and when we can
change or reframe a thought, then we can change how we feel. For example, I feel angry
because my mother called me lazy. I think my mother called me that way because she does
not see me working hard or maybe because she is just really unfair all the time. I can reframe
that by saying, my mother is just very stressed and tired tonight. She does not mean what she
says. By reframing the thought, I have changed the way I feel about the situation.
ANALYSIS:
What do you feel? What do you think was the point of this activity?

OBJECTIVES
• Identify personal, social, and emotional sources of strengths during and in the aftermath of
the disaster/stressful situation
• Identify their internal and external sources of strength
REVIEW:
Did you remember what the three previous sessions were about?
We knew about our needs and how to address them. We learned about how to
control our reactions and emotions. Now let us reflect on what has helped us to
move on. We are able to move on and not continue to feel the way that we
were feeling days or months ago because we have strengths.
Can you tell what makes the kite go up in the air? It needs the wind, it needs to be
made of good material, it needs a line or a long string, it needs a strong brace, etc. This is our
way of reminding you that you have resources within yourselves or with others that have
allowed you to begin your process of recovery. Just like a kite, you too have what it takes to fly.
Activity:
Direction: On each part of the kite’s diamond, please write down what you think
are your sources of strength. What makes you strong despite what you have gone
through? Can you also identify what or who acts like the wind for you? Who or what
helps you soar?
