Let your breath be the first word that you say.

Rather than allowing your ego to switch on the fight or flight response, notice when you are becoming dysregulated in a conversation. Before you fight or flee take a gut breath and exhale three times. This keeps you in your executive functioning brain (prefrontal cortex). Then you will be able to clearly consider and respond authentically.
