I've been theming recent posts around self care because some of the revelations I've had tied to it lately are ones that I want to stick. My last therapy appointment, nestled between two very painful story funerals, led to me realizing that I had developed some unhealthy mentalities about my well being. I know that externalizing these kinds of revelations in my head is how I'm able to make myself process and retain them, that's the whole point of my art collection.

This is the 'censored' version of dialogue for this piece, considering the more sensitive mental health context of the therapy session.

The piece depicts Timbεr, who had long been complacent in a belief that stress and pain are just to be an accepted part of life, having the realization that she can soothe her emotions without merely repressing them.
