also what i would suggest is focusing on physical comfort. do all the five senses.
- touch different things: -- pet your kitty cat. notice the softness of her fur. notice her breathing and warmth. -- touch a warm blanket. squeeze part of it in your hand and notice the give. notice the softness. -- touch a piece of wood or wooden furniture. notice the smoothness, or roughness of the wood, and any uneven spots in it. - taste -- sip water, or a some warm tea. eat a piece of bread. keep it simple. notice the wetness of the water, the texture of the bread, the taste, or lack of it. - look at things --- trees outside, maybe changing colors --- again your kitty cat... focus on her face, her eyes, ears. how graceful a kitty cat is. - hear things --- noice the creatures outside might be making --- the sound of the heating system if it is on --- the sound of the wind or rain - smell --- a mild piece of soap or bubble bath, shampoo --- spices... pick one that you like. cinnamon? --- the pages an old book. these have a peculiar, old, strangely comforting smell. like something that is and always will be. FINALLY: wrap your arms around yourself, and squeeze. right - give yourself a hug. feel the safety of a hug. consider it on all of our behalf. check in from time to time, when you can. and remember to breathe gently. ~ waves ~

actually the touch orientation is something that came naturally to me. and all the examples i came up with or have used myself.
the hugging too is something i have done spontaneously and was afraid to admit for years. i was actually a little suspicious of it and it took my therapist telling me it was healthy before i suggested it to others. However the 5 senses thing i got from a post of Mari's... it seemed like a more thorough version of my experience with touch. touch still seems like the strongest tether to me, but others may have better success with a different sense. certainly going through all of the senses, is a more thorough approach. one can then do more of the sense that is most comforting. ~ waves ~ credit goes to Mari for the 5 senses exercise. |
