How are you feeling today?

Checking in with ourselves is an important restorative practice. In our Healing Tool Box, you'll find methods to guide your healing process through grounding and self reflection.

Looking Inward

When we take a moment to reflect on our thoughts, feelings, and experiences, we are able to process and understand them. These resources can help identify the sources of trauma and create space to develop a method for healing.

Whether its a quick daily check-in, or a deeper exploration when you feel the need, these materials provide pathways to new perspectives and insights that can inform the healing process and cultivate self awareness and growth.
