Grounding Techniques: The 5 Senses
Mindfulness Center / by BriTheSelflessFriend171
Last post
 February 4th, 2021
...See more Hello, loves! Grounding techniques are extremely important! This is especially so when you are having a panic attack, anxiety attack, or PTSD related flashbacks. These techniques bring you back to reality to help you think more clearly and rationally! The one I will be telling you all about today is to connect to your 5 senses, one at a time! 💕 To start, you will name 5 things you can see. This will help your brain to better comprehend what is around you and what is not! Then, you will name 4 things you can feel. This keeps you mindful of your body and your direct surroundings. Next, you will name 3 things you can hear. This helps you to focus in on what’s happening in your direct surroundings rather then what’s playing in your mind. After this, you name 2 things you can smell. This helps to start tying all of your physical feeling together. And finally, one thing you can taste. One you go through the full exercise, you are much more mindfully aware of what is directly around you! This helps you to realize a genuine truth rather then the rouse your mind may have created! It could also help to do some mindful deep breaths before and after to also assist in calming yourself. It’s as simple as deeply breathing in, holding for 3 seconds, then slowly breathing out. Please reply and let me know any quick grounding techniques you use!! I can’t wait to hear from you 💕. You are loved, and you are valid ❤️
