What a fun approach to the 5-4-3-2-1 method! I never thought about drawing them, that's def something I'm going to reach for when I'm feeling overwhelmed (by the news these days especially) 🧡
I'm glad your family is safe <3 Thank you for this exercise! The easiest was drawing what I could see and touch, but I had a hard time drawing what I could hear, taste, and smell. Never thought about drawing those senses! https://imgur.com/a/wCoZXuA

I love the diaristic quality of your page. And I must know more about this bon bon monkey with the tool belt!
Ha it's children's tv. Likely on in the background when if I am getting a free minute!
I grew up in LA too -Gardena- but not in fire zone . Wishing you and your LA family calm and hugs. So frightening…
Thank you MM! Best to you too <3

Really lovely RG! I love how you drew the spiral binding of your paper.
I love your visual depiction of the things you sense!
I also use the 5-4-3-2-1 technique a lot and like to incorporate it with the physical act of crochet in order to make it even more grounding.

This was such a helpful exercise. I will definitely do this again in moments of stress. Thank you. https://imgur.com/a/bsEPrFV
