re: movement -- I know this can be a triggering one for folks but I have really been getting into micro movements? Is that a thing? Basically at night finding ways to wiggle and jiggle and flutter my hands (it all kinda feels like stimming) or doing some Tai Chi exercises. I also got a vibration plate a few months ago and it has been a lifesaver for me. It is very low energy/effort, but when I am on it for ten minutes I do a lot of stretching and let out like 10-20 yawns. It truly feels like anxiety/stress is being shaken out of my muscles.
