I'm getting there...I think.Out of the past 12 days I've only had two days where my bpm (beats per minute) have been 80 or slightly over. Some context. I recently bought two bracelets... one amythyst and the other hematite. I think each had contributed to my lower bpm. I say this because most of the days saw the bpm in the low to mid 70's. This is also my second full week that I have not taken the natural stress/anxiety supplement. Four of these days saw my team (I work with 4 other teachers) with one teammate out of work. On two of these days the rest of the team had to take on extra students (I call that babysitting) because there was no substitute teacher available to be with this class. Having extra kids in the room can be very stressful. Especially when the class dynamic is already fragile. I must say though that I am proud of myself for the way I handled things. And the fact that my heart rate stayed relatively low...that's even better.
