Managing Stress – Grounding with the 5-4-3-2-1 Technique

Feeling overwhelmed? Ground yourself in the present moment. The 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique helps bring you back to the here and now by using your senses:

• 5 things you can see
• 4 things you can touch
• 3 things you can hear
• 2 things you can smell
• 1 thing you can taste

Grounding yourself in sensory experiences is a powerful way to calm your mind and regain control when stress feels overwhelming.
