A Small Step: Broken Heart Season
When rainy season hits hard, have your comfort kit ready.
Today, create one.
Building your rainy day comfort kit:
Physical comfort:
- Warm blanket
- Cozy socks
- Comfortable clothes
- Hot drink ingredients (tea, cocoa)
Sensory comfort:
- Candles or warm lighting
- Comforting scents
- Soft music playlist
- Rain sounds (if the real rain soothes)
Emotional comfort:
- A book that always helps
- Photos that bring warmth
- Journal ready to write
- Contact info for someone safe to call
Distraction comfort:
- Favorite movie or show
- Puzzle or game
- Creative supplies
- Comfort food to cook
Your assignment:
Gather 5-10 items into a physical or mental "kit." Know where they are. When rain hits and so does sadness, you'll be ready.
Grief Compass Journal can be part of your comfort kit.
