Toolkit 6: Building Emotional Recovery Through Self-Care


Introduction

When you’ve been through trauma, self-care isn’t a luxury, it becomes part of how you rebuild your relationship with your body, emotions, and needs.

This toolkit helps you explore self-care that’s not about bubble baths or routines, but about reconnecting with what restores you. It’s designed to bring you back to yourself, gently, gradually, and without pressure.



What’s Inside

  • A calming breath + senses grounding reset
  • Simple reflection prompts to notice your emotional state
  • An overview of five types of self-care to explore
  • Link between physical and emotional well-being
  • Seeking connection and support when you feel alone

This toolkit is here to remind you: you’re worth taking care of, even on the hard days.
