This is a space to find some calming strategies. No matter our age, when we are stressed or overwhelmed, these feelings connect to our thoughts. Which can become negative and even paralyzing. These feelings and thoughts produce reactions in our body. Which prepares us to Fight, Flee or Freeze. This is a "normal" reaction to a "not normal" situation. You deserve a moment of peace.
We are in uncharted territory right now. Nobody knows what to feel or even do. It is hard to know if we are safe or not safe. We want you to know that your feelings are valid, no matter what they are. Whether you feel confused, overwhelmed, scared, mad, alone, grateful, or even calm. You could even have many feelings at once, mad that you can go shopping when you need to easily, but happy that you can watch movies for hours. Please remember, feelings are normal; the situation is not. Don't forget to breathe
