I find that it helps me to do something that marks the transition, whether it be putting on comfy clothes, or having a nice cup of tea...anything I can do to signal my brain - "you're safe now; this is your den and you can relax" (I know, dens are for foxes, but it's a safe word to me). I tend to hold on to the stress if i don't do something that helps me transition.
Myrrh -- this is such a great suggestion!! I NEED a ritual or more than one to mark the transition! I think that will help me a lot!
Thanks for the awesome tip! Sage
Relax. Appreciate. Be calm. Laugh. Enjoy. Be secure. Be loving. Be loved. Don't personalize. Don't ASSume. Accept. Be grateful.
