Get a Massage "When we stimulate the skin, we can release, literally, a shower of healing chemicals
into our blood stream." ~ Deepak Chopra
Touch can soothe, comfort and convey caring in a way that words never can. Touch has the power to heal us, connect us,
and ease pain. It also lessens anxiety and
softens the blows of life. The simple act of healthy touch is so powerful that it can slow your heart rate, decrease your blood pressure, and
strengthen your immune system.

Confidence Builders:
Wear clothes you like Exercise and/or take self defense classes
Regular, healthful exercise clears the mind, lifts
the spirits and releases natural pain releaving endorphins.
Set healthy, reasonable, empowering boundaries Be self-compassionate and self-protective
Reduce activities that cloud perception, such as
the excessive consumption of alcohol/cigarettes/vape/drugs and keeping company with negative people. Role play - work through issues with a trusted mentor.
Find activities that are so enjoyable, so rich, so full, that you don’t
have time to entertain the bully/negatives - you’re too busy cultivating your own fun.
Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
