The Container

A container holds what feels like too much — safely, and only until you and your therapist can look at it together. You’re not pushing it away; you’re setting it down.

Imagine your container. What does it look like?

What would you like to place inside it for now?

How do you close and secure it?

Where do you keep it until your next session?

A moment of reflection

Now that it’s contained — what becomes a little more possible for you today?

How much lighter do you feel after containing it?

This is a self-reflection tool for nervous-system support — not a diagnosis or a substitute for therapy. If you feel overwhelmed, pause and reach out to your therapist or a crisis line.
