🌟 Creating your own Self-Care Box 🌟
Step 1: Get a box, any size is fine!
Step 2: Decorate it! (I used wallpaper and paint)
Step 3: Buy things to go inside your box - Remember this is your self-care box, so fill it with things that distract, comfort, relax and cheer you up in times of distress.
Colouring books with pens or pencils 🌟
Soft toys/teddies (These are great for comfort) 🌟
Write a few letters to yourself for when you need them 🌟
For example - Your favourite memories, reasons to stay alive, reasons not to self-harm, you can do this, motivational quotes, the things you love about yourself
Step 4: Once you have all your items of choice put them all into your box! 🌟
Step 5: Whenever you feel low, anxious, scared, alone, angry or distressed. Go to your box. It will always be there for you when you need it.
Remember - This is YOUR box. Fill it with whatever makes you happy. Some more suggestions could be; bath bombs, lavender oil, hand cream, a blanket, fluffy socks, snacks, pictures of loved ones, a puzzle game, arts and crafts items.
If you make one, take a picture and show me!
Stay strong my warriors 💖🌟
