Relaxing is a whole different thing. Progressive muscle relaxation has helped, I have a guided one on my iphone. Massage (which I never thought I would be able to handle) has helped quite a bit too. The key for me was finding a non threatening early 20's woman. (close to my daughter's age)

pretty much. Grounding is getting into the now, as opposed to floating away in your memories, or being overwhelmed by seeing what is not there, and such.

I like to keep crystals around and clutch on them. Realize structure and shape. Look at the color and shade. (yes, there are crystals for particular problems and emotions... but mostly it works to pick them on which you like and "feel" the best).
