Calm
Safe place
Somewhere no one can reach you, and nothing is required of you. Build it slowly.
“There is a place where we are still together. I can go there anytime.”
How to hold it
- Close your eyes. Choose a place — a shore, a porch, a room with warm light.
- Add one sound. Then one smell. Then the temperature of the air.
- Put a soft chair there for you. And a small space beside you for them.
- Stay for as long as you like. You can come back whenever you need.
