Pressure Release Interactive calming activity -A gentle pause when feelings feel intense

Space to Breathe Therapy

Pressure Release

A place to pause when feelings become intense. Explore gentle colour and movement. There is nothing to win, finish or get right.

Hold the button to slowly soften the colours. Release whenever you want.

Your feelings deserve care. Take this at your own pace.

Let your hands rest. If you can, move away from anything you could use to hurt yourself and go somewhere with another person. You could message: “I’m having urges to hurt myself. Can you stay with me?”

This is a distraction activity, not treatment or emergency support. Stop if it makes an urge stronger. If you have already hurt yourself, seek medical help. If you might act on an urge or cannot stay safe, contact someone now. In the UK, call Samaritans on 116 123. For immediate danger, serious injury or heavy bleeding, call 999 or go to A&E.
