When you’re stressed or anxious, how do you ground yourself? And no, I’m not talking about the sort of grounding you get as a punishment (“Mary, you’re grounded!”), but rather the kind you do to calm yourself down. If you’re feeling the panic coming on or just in a high stress situation or feeling the anxiety rising, grounding yourself helps bring you back to the here-and-now present moment… and away from the Hot Mess Express train.

Earlier this week, I spoke with author Carly Pollack all about how to make self-care ‘non-negotiable’ through meditation and silence as part of our 5-part series together. And one thing that really struck me from our conversation was when she talked about the difference between self-care and restorative care. Yes, yes… pedicures and spa days are nice but restorative care is the deeper gift you give yourself that truly restores you and helps you feel more grounded.

But let’s face it… when you’re in a high stress situation and (especially) navigating ALL the things during the holiday season, it’s likely you’re getting triggered left, right, and center. So, how do we overcome the overwhelm?

It’s as simple as 5-4-3-2-1 to get plugged back into your body, back into your environment, and get yourself back to calm.

Let’s simplify that…

Here’s how to ground yourself - the 5-4-3-2-1 simple method

Remember, you cannot control life. But you can learn to gain better control over your emotions and what triggers you. It takes practice, repetition, and a little bit of grace. And the good news is, these are all things you already possess.

You can do this, I believe in you.

It’s time to SIMPLIFY.
