CONTROL , HALT, RELIEF

Learn how these words can change your working mental stress

Halt

Purpose: Understand the real cause of the emotional reaction.

What it does:

Encourages emotional honesty
Stops misdirected anger or stress
Identifies the underlying trigger (stress, fatigue, fear, frustration, conflict, unmet needs)
Helps people express what they feel with clarity instead of confusion
Improves communication with therapists, coworkers, partners, and family

HALT teaches:
“Before you push forward, stop and check your emotional system.”

This step helps adults avoid miscommunication, impulsive decisions, and emotional withdrawal.

Relief

Purpose: Reduce emotional pressure and create a path forward.

What it does:

Offers quick emotional-release techniques
Helps calm the nervous system
Restores mental clarity
Prevents stress accumulation
Improves emotional stamina throughout the day
Helps individuals re-enter work or daily life with a regulated mindset

Relief methods include:

guided micro-breaks
self-soothing techniques
grounding exercises
emotional labeling
breathing resets
COSMIC AEI guided emotional rebalancing

Relief teaches:
“Give yourself the emotional reset your body and mind are asking for.”

This creates long-term resilience and prevents emotional burnout.

Control

Purpose: Stop the rising wave of emotion before it takes over.

What it does:

Helps the brain shift from reaction mode to awareness mode
Interrupts emotional overload or negative momentum
Gives the person a “micro-pause” to prevent saying or doing things they regret
Activates the prefrontal cortex (decision-making center)
Lowers immediate impulse, anger, anxiety, or frustration

Control teaches:
“Before you respond, regain control of the moment.”

This step alone can reduce conflict, de-escalate tension, and prevent crisis behaviors.

Control Halt Relief™

A three-step emotional-reset method that gives adults and behavioral-health workers a way to control emotional overload, pause, and regain clarity in the moment.

Together, these tools create emotional stability, clearer communication, and stronger engagement with behavioral-health support.

Some are overwhelmed but don’t have the words.
Some feel heavy but don’t know why.
Some want help but don’t know how to ask.
And some spend so much time surviving that they forget what it feels like to breathe.

In our communities especially in underserved and minority areas emotional pain is real, constant, and often silent.
Not because people don’t care.
Not because they’re weak.
But because traditional mental-health systems were never built to understand the emotional languages of everyone.

This is where we come in.
