Assembling a Grounding Box

• Seek something to touch that will remind you that you exist.
• Seek something to see, that will elevate your spirit and draw you forward.
• Seek something to smell, that will draw you into th epresent moment.
• Seek something to listen to that calms your soul our allows you to feel your feelings. Singing engages your vagus nerve and includes deep belly breaths. Both can calm your nervous system.
• Seek something to taste; mindfully eat one serving of a favorite treat, close your eyes and really live it.

You are not alone, you matter.
