Another page for my journal.
Not my typical page, but I'm not even sure I have a "typical".
I folded strips of paper and tucked them into a small paper bag.
The idea is to write all the things causing me anxiety on the strips of paper, stuff them into the bag and clip it shut with the tiny clothespin.
Although I really haven't used it for it's intended purpose, just the making of it worked for bagging my anxiety.
I think it might be something useful for children who have issues with anxiety.
For me keeping busy and finding creative distractions works best.
Have a stress free day!

ReplyDeleteThank you Dorthe! Just creating brings me peace. Does it do the same for you?
DeleteWhat a creative way to compartmentalize your anxiety. Art/craft "therapy" is such a healthy activity.
