These blankets will be perfect for students to simply touch or wear throughout group counseling sessions where emotions are running high and anxious symptoms typically go through the roof. A lot of my students nervously pick at themselves, their clothes, their fingers, and giving them something to hold onto seems a lot less destructive.
It's hard to get through a school day when you're riddled with anxiety and feel completely dysregulated and unsafe! That's where the weighted blankets will be perfect: a non-invasive, non-traumatizing method to help a student come down from 11 to something a little more chill. So many of them are just desperate to feel safe, it would be awesome for each kid to have access to their own piece of calm.
