The Ultimate Tool for Anxiety?
Do you ever have so many worries, that you wish you could just pop them away. Anxiety getting the better of you and you are just in the mind of wanting to relieve it all?
In this chaotic, never ending life of stressful events, we have found something that helps us calm us down, if you know what we mean. No it’s not arm wrestling or punching your boss in the face (even though that would make things feel a lot better). A simple tool that is available whenever you need it. Something hidden in plain sight. You have seen it, in fact as a kid, you may have been yelled at to stop playing with it. Have you ever moved homes? Packed things for storage? Received a delicate glass item? What do they all have in common?
Bubble Wrap!
Yes, you heard us right.
Bubble Wrap. The only way to pop those worries away. This hidden gem has some essence for tranquility and definitely stress relief. Why? How? What?
Bubble Wrap has some sort of sensory satisfaction. When you pop bubble wrap – it can be addicting, but that crisp sound it makes, gives a diverting yet calm experience, taking away our craziness of a brain to shift our thoughts to the present. It removes the thoughts of our anxieties and allows us to smile.
Bubble Wrap popping is the best way to be distracted. A good type of distraction. Our brain is so wrapped up in a different world that when popping we can focus on the present. This allows us to get rid of that tension, bringing us to the here and now, not elsewhere.
Bubble Wrap is so convenient that you can actually keep it in your pocket, bag or even your binder. Carry a small sheet with you. It’s light and portable. Available whenever you need that on-the-spot stress relief.
Bubble Wrap is definitely an alternative to fidget toys. Have you ever used them? Fidget spinners and all. Bubble wrap can help provide a tangible solution to channel that anxious energy along with any other fidget toys.
Bubble Wrap is an affordable option. Heck, yeah, it’s become Bubble Wrap Therapy. It can even be eco-friendly. Instead of throwing out that bubble wrap you used to move homes or received from the fragile gift store, it can be used as your stress-relief tool, allowing you to minimize waste and maximize its potential.
Rakstars, in the question to find anxiety relief activities, bubble wrap is one of the simplest solutions. Pop those useless thoughts away, alleviate your stress and have a mindful distraction. This portable stress-relief tool can help you move forward in your day. The next time you feel that rollercoaster of anxiety, reach for that pocket size sheet of bubble wrap and pop your way to peace.
