Editor: Put Your Own Mask on First! Tanni L. Anthony, Ph.D. By Tanni Anthony State Consultant on Blindness/Low Vision At the recent Courage to Risk Conference, one of the speakers Colorado Department of Education made a comment that really got my attention. Kim Bevill ad- 1560 Broadway, Suite 1175 vised, “Put your own mask on first!” Anyone who has flown Denver, CO 80202 on a commercial plane knows this is part of the safety infor- mation shared before the plane takes off. Remember … (303) 866-6681 (voice) “Should the cabin lose pressure, oxygen masks will drop from (303) 866-6767 (fax) the overhead area .. please place the bag over your own mouth E-mail: [email protected] and nose before assisting children.” This is a good life practice and not just on a plane that may be experiencing chal- lenges. It can be applied to life challenges too. The inherent meaning is that we as adults are not good to anyone, if we are not emotionally secure and balanced to take on the next task in front of us. Whether we are wearing a caregiver hat or a professional hat, we need to put our metaphorical mask first on so we can be in a position of true attention to the people we care for in our lives. In these ever busy times, we must first take care of ourselves to be of good use to others. Since Kim shared this message, I have had the opportunity to be on five different flights. As I waited for those take-offs, I listened attentively and smiled when the oxygen mask part of the flight attendant message was shared. -
