Heal
The last section in your BRIC Box is an invitation to heal. When we engage our FIVE senses, we engage our body with comfort.
- TASTE: There are snacks to eat including: Vitamin C fruit snacks, mini beef stick with 4g of protein, dark chocolate, a CALM magnesium drink packet and sugar free gum.
- SIGHT: Observe the affirming messages on the outside of the box and light the votive candle to create a sense of calm.
- SMELL: Burn the palo santo stick by lighting it and then blowing it out so it gives off scented smoke that can cleanse the energy and calm your mind. There is a black lava rock bracelet with lemongrass and lavender oil. These essential oils can be placed directly onto the lava rock beads which will hold onto the scent for several days. The lemongrass is invigorating while the lavender is good for calming and promoting sleep. This allows for gentle aroma therapy to be available either by wearing the bracelet or keeping it close by. You can sit and take a deep breath in through your nose, count to five and then exhale through your mouth. This is a powerful way to calm down your nerves and center your body. Do this five times when lying down to sleep as a way to get yourself ready for rest.
- TOUCH: Take the whole world in your hands with the stress ball. Hold onto it and squeeze while you are sitting and let the sensation relax you. You can also write your thoughts down, keep track of your questions and progress with your pain and wound care with The BRIC Pen and Journal.
