🌈 “The Tiny Tea Party Trick” ☕🍓
When you feel like you're going to burst from frustration:
1. Pause and Whisper: Say quietly to yourself, "I need a tiny tea party break."
2. Set it up: Grab a little cup, your favourite snack (like a cracker or a strawberry), and a soft toy or figure you love.
3. Invite your guest: Sit down with your toy and pretend you’re having a calm, fancy tea party together.
4. Talk kindly: Tell your toy how you feel. Say, "I'm upset because..." and let them “listen” without interrupting.
5. Sip, nibble, breathe: Take a slow sip or bite, take three deep “flower breaths” (in like you're smelling a flower, out like you’re blowing a leaf), and remind yourself: "I’m safe. I can feel better soon."
🌟 Why it works: It gives your brain a fun, quiet game to focus on while helping your feelings calm down gently—like a warm hug in your imagination. And your soft toy will be proud of you for being so brave. 💕
