Pause here. Breathe.
What do you wish someone had said to you during a similar time?
Feeling overwhelmed? Try this grounding tool:
- 5 things you can see
- 4 things you can touch
- 3 things you can hear
- 2 things you can smell
- 1 thing you can taste
This can help bring you back to the present.
If you need a break, you can also try breathing exercises here.
