Five-minute physiological grounding protocol
Adrenaline spikes after public harassment or online pile-ons lock the body into fight-or-flight. This brief grounding sequence interrupts panic responses, cools the nervous system, and restores physical autonomy.
Plant your feet against firm pavement. Name three tactile surfaces you can touch right now. Lower your breathing rhythm to a four-second count. You control the ground beneath you.
Solidarity holds the ground
Connect with peer advocates, share secure action kits, or reach out when you need backup in hostile spaces.
