The idea behind this card — Supportive touch

An invitation: one hand on your chest, three slow breaths. A way to find yourself when the day scatters.

The practice

place a hand flat on your chest. Press slightly. Feel three full breaths rise under your palm. Say — silently is fine — still here. Touch is scarcer now. This kind is yours to give.

Where this idea comes from

  • Supportive touch and self-soothing — affective neuroscience
