Emotional First Aid Kit – Self-Soothing (DBT)

Do you have an emotional first aid kit that you can turn to when you’re feeling emotionally distressed.  Check out this lovely video by  Youtuber “Life in Recovery.”  She goes through self-soothing through the five senses –  one of my very favorite DBT skills!

Let me know what you think!

Thanks for reading.

More soon.

In kindness,
Debbie

    Thank you. I found this very helpful. Sometimes I feel as if I am running away from the feeling by distracting myself but I will definitely take away music, and chocolate/hot chocolate and tea as self-soothing materials

    Hi Debbie, I have a question for you. I recently saw the movie Welcome to Me starring Kristen Wiig as a woman with BPD. Have you seen it? What are your thoughts on it?
    Thanks
