Thank you! The idea of drawing circles is really helpful. All of the troubles of everyone in the world drains me and does not help them. So maybe drawing circles will conserve my energy for something useful.

My daughter is going to help her very sensitive and empathetic son with this method. I can already feel it helping me too. Again, thank you so much.

Yes, the world is definitely not 'short and sweet' lately. The circle i draw only let's in worldly news If and When I choose. My mental health thanks me for this Safety Circle. Thank you for sharing this Tanmeet! ❤️

I have always been drawn to circles in art, mandalas, gatherings etc. The circle of life. I love the idea of using the circle for boundaries. Perhaps this will help with the sorrow I feel for what is going on in the world today. This is very helpful!

So glad Celeste. Yes, circles are amazing symbols and in this case, they become one of personal power. Sending much love to your heart. The sorrow is real.

I need to draw a circle today to keep the ocean outside my window "in" and the screen-life out. Though I'm so happy I had enough screen-life to see this beautiful post. Thank you.
