QUOTE : Notice something pleasant that’s already present in your experience. Perhaps a relaxed sense of breathing, comfort, or curiosity. • Find something good in your immediate situation. Perhaps something sturdy, well made, protective, useful, or beautiful, such as a cozy chair, a tree out the window, or a picture on the wall. • Think of something you are glad about, in your life these days or in your past. It could be as simple as having a roof over your head. • Bring to mind someone who makes you feel cared about. It need not be a perfect relationship, but the caring—the warmth for you, the wishing you well—is genuine. • Bring to mind someone you like. • Think of some things that help you feel strong … peaceful … grateful … happy … loved … loving.
