Sannah, it sure is a challenge to not push away the hard feelings or bury yourself in a distraction!

I try the little process of acknowledging my tension/feelings, then I relax my whole body so that my body releases the pain of the moment.
Then, when I notice it is back, I do it again. And again, etc.

You are nearly home - is now the time to pack, do some farewell rituals for this foreign place? Exchange a small item with someone who has been kind, so you can take a good memory home?
