Action Step: 

Be Gentle and Compassionate with Yourself and Others, even those who may elicit a response of fear or anger from our lesser self. (see The Gentle Art of Blessing above)

Sanity Tip:   Pause before responding. Sometimes that pause may lasts an hour. Sometimes it may be for several days. And sometimes the longer we pause, the less we feel response is necessary.
