Containment Imagery

A guided practice for gently setting something aside when you need space from it.

Step 1 of 6

Sometimes something feels too big to hold all at once. Containment imagery is a way to gently set it aside for now, without denying it or forcing it away. Nothing here is saved.

If what you are holding feels urgent, unsafe, or impossible to set aside, reach out for immediate support or use crisis resources.

The May Tree Support App is not monitored and is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, call 988, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.
