💜 Practices for the protests

Every 15 minutes (set a timer) pause and take 3 breaths

5 4 3 2 1 - if you notice anxiety inside, pause and notice 5 things you can see, 4 things you hear, 3 things you feel, 2 things you smell, 1 thing you taste — feel the ground beneath you

If the energy is too much, it's okay to leave. Take care.
