"You can rest here while the world turns."
There's a little hummingbird inside my chest, wings flapping fast. Brown Bear offers her a warm hug and a familiar branch to sit on.
First, notice familiarity in small things:
Type on Your Keyboard
Feel the cute, pleasant keys. Listen to the sound.
Tactile and auditory comfort.
Touch Your Clothes
Feel the texture. Look in the mirror if you want.
Your favorite colors and fabrics, here with you.
Roll Palm Over Chest
Use your right palm. Press with force over your chest area.
Whisper: 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4
Better than a weighted blanket.

Take your current daily fidget from your desk.
Small, grounding, always there.
