If you become emotionally elevated try the 54321 method to mitigate this feeling and ground yourself. Grounding exercises can help reduce stress, anxiety, and overwhelm.

Use your senses to help by finding items and saying them out loud or silently to yourself.

👁️ 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

Using our senses is a simple way to ground ourselves at the moment and reset. Raise your hand if you have done or find the 54321 method helpful.

If you need help or support:
📱 Call or text the PSI HelpLine. You never need a diagnosis to ask for help.
💻 Visit www.postpartum.net for additional resources and programs.

What is ROWELL?

Rowell is a parent-founded and parent-run organization specifically funded (mostly by state grants & contracts) to provide direct services to families with children with disabilities ages birth – 22 within Siskiyou, Trinity, Shasta, Tehama, Glenn, Butte, Modoc, Lassen, and Plumas County.

A child may have a diagnosis, may be at risk, or the parents may be concerned and would like to seek an evaluation. Whatever the reason, we provide guidance to families who may not be familiar with the special education system or related services.
