Description
If you often find yourself struggling with feelings of anxiety or panic, Eve’s ‘self-soothe box’ is a great way to manage those feelings and help you feel more grounded and relaxed. Eve says:
Over the past few years I have struggled with feelings of anxiety and panic. A couple of years ago I was introduced by a mental health professional to the idea of a self-soothe box.
This is a box you can make that contains things that ground you, make you feel more relaxed and reduce symptoms of panic, anxiety or low mood. I loved the sound of it and made one immediately. It’s a tool I still turn to frequently.
If you find yourself struggling with similar feelings, then I would really recommend putting together a self-soothe box.
