How to Tend to Yourself

Practice Self-Soothing

Hypervigilance is a valid response to a chronic threat. Practice calming your ner- vous system by doing the following:

Create a grounding ritual. Spend time in nature, experiment with sound healing practices such as humming, take calming herbal supplements, and engage in self-touch practices such as hugging yourself or tapping, which involves lightly tapping acupressure points on your body.

Spend time with people who make you feel safe. In a society that causes us to be on high alert, it is important that we connect with people who allow us to breathe a little easier.
