Between Sessions

## Tools to support your *day-to-day* wellbeing

Mental health care doesn't stop when the session ends. Here are evidence-informed strategies you can use anytime.

🌬️

### Grounding & Breathing

Simple, immediate techniques to calm your nervous system when anxiety or stress feels overwhelming.

- Box breathing: inhale 4 counts, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4
- 5-4-3-2-1 grounding: name 5 things you see, 4 you feel, 3 you hear...
- Cold water on wrists or face to activate the dive reflex
- Progressive muscle relaxation from feet to head

📓

### Journaling & Reflection

Writing can help externalize internal experiences, identify patterns, and process difficult emotions.

- Gratitude journaling: 3 specific things you're grateful for each day
- Unsent letters to process difficult relationships or situations
- Thought records to challenge cognitive distortions
- Free writing for 10 minutes with no editing or judgment

🚶

### Movement & the Body

Physical activity is one of the most well-researched non-pharmaceutical interventions for depression and anxiety.

- Even a 10-minute walk can meaningfully improve mood
- Yoga and stretching can reduce physical tension tied to stress
- Dance, swimming, or any enjoyable movement counts
- Pay attention to sleep — it amplifies everything else

🤝

### Connection & Support

Isolation tends to deepen distress. Even small moments of genuine connection can shift your state.

- Reach out to one person today — a text, call, or coffee
- Consider a peer support group (in-person or online)
- Volunteer work builds meaning and social connection
- Be honest with safe people about how you're really doing
