Checking in with your emotions on a daily basis can help to prevent overwhelm & confusion. Keeping a daily record of how you're feeling will help. Making time for yourself in the morning or evening can encourage a sense of calm. If you're struggling for time away from the family just allowing yourself a 5 minute shower in a mindful way can be a good option. Notice the smells, sounds & feeling of the water. Check in with your feelings & acknowledge your emotions without judging them. | ![]() Activate the sensesWhat are your favourite smells, sounds, sights & textures? Activating your senses can help you to feel safe. Often smells or sounds bring back memories & images. Focusing on these allows the feelings to come flooding back & stimulates a sense of calm & happiness. |
