lol the "marble" is an object of focus I use

My therapist and I utilize a marble to hold, roll in my hand, etc while he gives me good energy and thoughts, posthypnotic suggestions for calm, so that when I need to be calm and focus (such as for numbing pain) I only need to hold the marble and breathe and begin to calm. Actually, I am at the point where I only need to
remember the marble, and I begin to calm and "numb" the pain.
