Hi everyone, thought today we could work on grounding exercises.

Read the image below and let us know what you see, you smell, you hear, you feel. You can do this on a walk, in your house or at work.

@DanaMH

This is not the grounding I am familiar with... can you or someone else elaborate more on mindful grounding, please?

Sounds like from those you are outside or have the window open typing on the laptop. I like to go outside on our deck sometimes.

@RumpleSteeleSkin

I am so glad that you see your clean house, it makes us feel good also when we see a clean house. Sounds like maybe you should get rid of those ferrets. Music is a great coping skill aslo. Was your dog enjoying the music to have his dog collar jingling? Sounds like it is time for some water while you are typing with your dog near you.

@amiablePeace77

Having colourful pictures on our wall always helps us focus on good colors also and helps us calm ourself in our mind. Sounds like you had a healthy snack unless someone else ate the orange. Hearing music is a great coping skill - and ice cream just taste so good also. When we have hot days it is so nice when we do have the cooler feeling in the evenings as a break.

I do agree on those cooler evenings when the windows are all open and you feel the warm breeze and it cools a bit in time.

Oh I are the orange surprise
