Today we want to introduce a couple techniques that are designed to “self soothe”. We will break down core senses through out the months to come on our blog.
There are a multitude of stressors that surround us in our daily lives, but imagine adding a child who has cancer to the mix. Today we would like you to set a few minutes aside to invest in soothing one of your senses: touch.
The following coping mechanisms provided by About Health are designed to target and alleviate our touch sense:
- Soaking in a warm bath
- Getting a massage
- Relaxing in the warmth of the sun
- Stretching
- Going for a swim
- Changing into comfortable clothes
- Playing with an animal
