““ Internal Coaching Internal coaching will help you to manage stress by accentuating your positive mental attitude. Internal coaching works best with short, clear messages that specifically target the behavior or attitude you would like to adopt. Here are some positive messages that you may find helpful to tell yourself: -“I am under control.” -“I can get through this. I’ve done it before. I can do it again.” -“I am okay. I will be okay.” NOTE: When you give internal coaching suggestions to yourself, be sure to leave out the words “no” and “not.” A sentence or phrase such as “I will not fail” causes feelings of defensiveness and negativity. Take the negatives out so that your brain can process the suggestion in a positive way.””
