Share ways that we can take care of ourselves when course material is triggering or inclusive of trauma. This can be an audio file, a song recommendation, a picture, a story, advice..

Talking with a friend

You can talk with a friend, colleague or family member who you trust.

Go for a walk, do something that calms you down like sewing or something you enjoy.

You should take the time to re-energize yourself. Take a breather. In order to take care of others, you need to take care of yourself. You can’t pour from an empty cup. Even if it’s just as simple as sitting outside alone for a minute.

You can go for a drive

When you feel overwhelmed you can always go for a drive if not you can always go for a walk, listening to music helps me a lot when I’m overwhelmed. Lots of different other ways to help calm yourself. I see people either going for a walk with music on, going for a drive, talking to people you trust. Going to mental therapy. Going to elders for advise.

Being around people that make you feel better helps, and whenever you’re ready you should talk to someone who you trust. And doing something that makes you happy helps you to feel better

We can take breaks, leave the room to do some stretches or use self regulation tools such as fidget toys.

Remind yourself it is okay to seek professional help, health professionals are there for a reason and that these feelings are temporary, they will lessen over time.

You can go for drives and listen to music, to me that’s some type of therapeutic thing for me. A few times I drove around and cried. You can talk to someone you trust, write it on a piece of paper and burn it, or even rip it up to pieces and garbage it. You can workout to ease your mind, anything that helps you. Just never bottle things up to yourself.

When I am feeling stressed out I like to talk to my best friend, or call my mom and cry to her lol let them know what is bothering me. I also like to go for walks or/and a drive to look at nature, these are the most helpful things for me, having fresh air helps calm my mind.

Sometimes I like to go play sport, or even stretch out my muscles just to get rid of the tension.

There are also other ways we can get rid of stress, like sewing, yoga, cleaning and listening to music, talking to mental health or nurses.

Music, music heals me in some ways, talking to my friend heals me too, in a lot of ways, they allow me to cry when I need it the most, they even share some music and let me listen to the words.. even talking to my family members..

When I’m feeling stressed out or needing something or someone to help me cope, I tell my bff to come over to come and talk and we do some things, like arts and crafts, go for rides and just talk to each other. My favourite way to cope with what I’m dealing with is when my bff and dress up, pretty up and go take pictures out on the land.

ways I take care of myself is by listening to music with headphones, going for a drive, playing with fidget toys. Talking to close friends about how im feeling and just being in an empty room letting all of my emotions out
