      Definitely a floor cushion, a ton of blankets, a dimmable lamp, no phones or laptops or TV's tho

        @TinyWaffle I'm a little curious. Why no electronics?

          @finncuiss I find when I'm in my safe space having any sort of electronic device destroys the safe feeling. It's different for everyone, but I just don't want anything that emits that kind of light in my safe space.

      This just warms my heart so much. Maybe a favorite scene or some safe packaged same foods? Headphones, stim toys, weighted blanket?

      I recommend a comfy chair and dimmable lamp. Those are my 2 favorite bedroom furniture and they work wonders for me. Also maybe throw in any self soothing items you like, such as scent beads, coloring books or bags of snacks

      do you have or are you familiar with a rice bag? it's a typically rectangular cloth bag filled with rice that is intended to be heated up for treating muscle tension, but I find it very helpful for dpt!
