Positive recovery post - Glitter Jar Distraction Technique

[musicmad123]

Hey guys, this is a really cool idea that you can use when you feel like doing something harmful.
All you do is get an empty glass jar (with a lid!) Fill it up with hot water and then add about a tablespoon of glitter glue, you can then add a few drops of food colouring and extra glitter if you like.
Put the lid on and shake it up. The idea is when you are feeling like you need to self harm or purge or whatever, shake up the jar and just watch till all the glitter has settled, and do this as many times as you need.
As well as being helpful they are also really pretty :D You could even do one in every colour of hte rainbow and line them up on a window sill for an awesome decoration.

This would be so pretty if you put it in front of a light and watch it! Maybe by your bed.

I really like this idea =D
I did it once but I put in laminated pieces of paper with distractions written on it and watched and the last one to land was one to try doing to stop the urges.
It worked pretty well but you can only have a few different distractions.

This sounds really calming, and that it'd slow your thoughts down watching the glitter slowly sink.

Thanks for sharing :)
