Today is today. I want it to be better.

It's okay to need a reminder. We all do sometimes. Especially when we are feeling overwhelmed. Do you think in the future you can write down the grounding skills you are using when you are in session, or right after. Then they will be easier to use because you will have them written down to look at. (not that we all remember even when we have them written down.) I have a whole list of my biggest grounding skills taped to my wall by my bed. That way when I start myself sliding (and I remember) I can just go look at it. I don't have to try to remember what they are, just remember that I have a list of them.

I hope that today is better.

Thanks for this!
