Weighted stuffy = not just for kids!

Resource / Technique

I began therapy 6 months ago and am now working with a trauma therapist starting an EMDR series. Lately, I’ve found myself grabbing onto her sofa pillows, and the last visit I caught myself petting one 😬 😂

I thought about this a lot. I went online and did some research. I found a well made, weighted bear that reminds me of my bestie chocolate lab that passed away. He arrived today and ohhh am I glad I did this! It’s the perfect companion.

It turns out that on the surface, I had a lot of traumas in my teen and adult years, but when we reduce it, it all stems back to early childhood. So this bear is for young me. 💗

It’s a 22 inch 5 lb. Brease bear, and it’s very well made. They have lots of other cute options. I thought I’d share which is hopefully allowed, because there’s a lot of junk out there. This was pricey, but I’m thrilled with the quality and the weight.

Here’s to following out heart’s lead, and learning to comfort ourselves. 🥰
