Swr#6 02/26/00 6:11 PM: Dr. Driving's suggestions are excellent. I have already been using one of his techniques, and that is the "Castanza Method"...I repeat something calming until I calm down. I also like to count to ten, but I sometimes count too fast and have to keep counting to ten...an example was when my girlfriend said something that made me mad while I was taking her to school. My initial urge was to gas the car and speed until I felt better, but then I thought about it and just mumbled "Count to ten....1..2...etc." a few times. It worked, and I felt better w/o speeding or driving recklessly. I also feel that the adjustments suggested must be made in everyday life, not just driving. Having patience with people you come across everyday is a virtue we can benefit from regardless of whether or not it's in a car. Reaction: This swr focused on modifying he sensorimotor aspect of one's self. I also learned how to direct my cognitive self, what I was thinking, towards a mote positive aspect of stree on the road.
