Glitter jars - 
I was taught about glitter jars during my time as an inpatient. I learnt the magic of glitter during a self-soothe class as part of an emotional coping skills lesson.
There&rsquo;s no science, no counting, no acceptance and no forceful methods involved in the alteration of your emotions during use of the glitter jar - just distraction. 
Making a glitter jar is simple. You will need:
1 jar (with a lid of course!)
1/10 vegetable oil
9/10 water
glitter - lots of!
food colouring
anything else shiny
Add the water and vegetable oil together. Add a few drops of food colouring, all of the glitter and anything else shiny. Put the lid on (tight!) and shake it.
When you want to cut / binge / scream / cry, shake the glitter jar and watch until the glitter is settled. It&rsquo;ll calm you and hopefully the emotion will pass.

Reblogging for my followers. I made one of these and it is honestly so calming to just watch it.&nbsp;

Mun: I can do this with the butterfly project now&hellip;cool

Glitter Jar will make all the feels, Happy Feels!!!

I want one.&nbsp;
