my tricks : Denice the Menace I only buy clothes with pockets.
Because I keep my touchstones of grounding in my pockets.
Like: a purplish marble
a coin that says one day at a time
my first pets rabie vaccination tag (1964)
a stress squeezie ball that is the Earth
a small super ball
an egg with silly putty
When I squeeze the marble, coin, tag, balls it reminds me to focus
If I really need to distract I pull out the super ball and start bouncing and catching after about twenty times I really do start to change my perspective and add an additional 30 to 50 bounces to be sure.
If I'm sitting at a desk or in a place I can't bounce, I finger the putty for a while, reshaping and warming it, rolling it into a ball, flattening it ......
Necklaces are good things to, to play with or fidget with.
Every morning I pick what strikes me for the day. I don't know why but it works for me. |
