Take a small, or big box and fill it with anything that gives you comfort, easy right? If you know you get comfort from hugging a pillow, put a small pillow in your comfort box.
Don't know where to start? here are a few idea's.
- Stuffed animals/pillows to hug.
- a blanket.
- Your favorite book or poem.
- Your favorite over sized t shirt.
- tissues.
- Nail polish (it is optional, but I fin painting my nails very calming)
- a journal and pen to write down all your thoughts and emotions of the moment.
- comedy films or TV series ( NO TV series/films that will make you sad, which I used to do a lot of the time which would get me even in a worse mood then before).
- Drawing material
- a CD with your favorite playlist (Happy songs, songs which remind you of something good, maybe songs that will remind you of something good about the past that made you happy).
- scented candles.
- A bubble wand to blow bubbles and distract yourself a bit ( it may sound silly but when you feel terrible weird stuff like a bubble wand can make you so happy).
- body lotion with your favorite scent.
- pictures of your favorite people, or good memories.
- Tea (works always for me).
- a stress ball ( doesn't always work that well if your stressed but it's fun to play with once you calmed down a bit)
- encouraging notes and letters you get from loved ones.
- a jar filled with your favorite uplifting quotes.
- Your concert tickets
- Old postcards that cheer you up.
- Glitter.
- Play-do
What is something you wouldn't want to miss in your comfort box?
