Every time I dance it feels like a way back home to myself. Ori has been with me since I was a child. Before x, y, z. Suddenly, I am easily whole, safe, and good. Drumbeats in my blood like fire; I am alive.
If you're recovering from trauma or have CTPSD, finding that *thing* that feels like home, or that *joy* that was with you since long before those events or person ever happened, could be really helpful in grounding + finding a way back to light. 🕯️

If you have something in your life (literally in any form) that brings you outside of yourself and brings you to a state of peace, hold on to that. Realize that this is your form of mediation and stick to it regularly. My life is moving very fast and I lose sight of those things sometimes, and when I do I go insane. Right now my meditation is being in Ableton or Blender but I want to get back into regular mediation in nature since Ableton and Blender are also my career now lol.

I always forget about it and then remember again and I’m like oh yeah that’s why I’m not normal. You can write this into your journal every day to hold yourself accountable and keep track of your moods.
You can look up safe calm place meditation on YouTube but it’s essentially a visualization technique where you imagine a place where you can be safe and totally at ease and the sensory experience of that—mine was a grassy meadow with a stream of running water and cows mooing nearby. The more you build it up and return to it the more powerful it can become when you need it.
I really enjoy Tara Brach’s body scan meditations and her felt smile meditation too.
These are all for trauma obviously and the TICES log isn’t really relevant, but they could be really helpful for stress too I think because most of them are just basic elements of well being and awareness. I need to get back on this myself in these trying times…

I'd like a stronger affirmative/feedback that I liked a post.
Somehow I click it like 5x liking and unliking it and unsure if it went through. I think the stars change color now from white to yellow.
