Simple Self-Care Practices

5-4-3-2-1 Grounding

Name 5 things you can see, 4 you can touch, 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell, 1 you can taste. This technique brings you into the present moment.

Box Breathing

Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4. Repeat. This regulates the nervous system and reduces anxiety.

Body Scan

Bring your attention slowly through your body from your feet to the crown of your head, noticing sensations without judgement.
