Grounding

Grounding is used to help you feel more present and connected to your surroundings, helping to reducing anxiety and stress. One grounding method is the  5-4-3-2-1 method:

​

5: Find five things you can see

4: Find four things you can touch

3: Find three things you can hear

2: Find two things you can smell

1: Find one thing you can taste.

 

You can find items that help with all of these categories if you have purchased one of the anxiety boxes.
