Day 5 of 7 Student #4 for Sand Tray Therapy Class
This is day 5 of 7 in the extended sand tray therapy class assigment.
In this sand tray you have a car sitting on top of a prisoner. This represents my escaping from the pasts weeks stressors. I am no longer struggling as much from the emotional whirlwind of the week I had. I am heading back towards a happy place, which is represented by the palm tree, my safe place. The lizards, bear, frog, and whale represent the feeling of freedom and relief I have. Things are starting to get a lot more easy and manageable, and common stressors that everyone face are starting to become the only thing i have to deal with. Hopefully, the ease back into normal life will not be plagued with more unexpected and untouchable bumps in the road.
