CALM Workbook

C.A.L.M.: The Green Light Workbook (Volume 2) — Printable PDF

The calm you build on ordinary days is the calm you will have on hard ones.

C.A.L.M. is the Green Light framework of the TEMP Method. It is a short daily practice for the days when life is steady. Most people only think about calming down once they are already upset, when every skill is harder to reach. This workbook helps you build a calm baseline ahead of time through small, deliberate pauses that become part of your routine.

The practice has four steps:

C: Cease Activity, stepping out of autopilot at the natural doorways of your day

A: Acknowledge God, turning your attention toward His presence

L: Listen to Breath, noticing your breathing and letting it slow

M: Mindful Moment, staying with the present long enough to notice it
