Grounding Exercise

Grounding Exercise

If you are feeling anxious or in a spiral, try this approach (not my own) for re-grounding: Make note of

5 things you can see

4 things you can feel

3 things you can hear

2 things you can smell

1 thing you can taste.

This will bring you out of a state of mental turmoil and back into the present. It will not solve any problems, but it can interrupt your emotions from running away in the situation.
