Comfort Arts

Take a moment and reflect on things around your house (or otherwise readily available) that are comforting to you.

In your Project Quartz journal, make a list of at least 5 of these things. They could include movies, TV shows, books, songs, clothing items, blankets, candles, etc.

When you’re in need of comfort, turn to your list and pick one or more of these things.


We need Kate, and we need Leo. And we need them now.

The phrase “comfort arts” is from Feral Self-Care: 100 Ways to Liberate and Celebrate Your Messy, Wild, and Untamed Self (2023) by Mandi Em. She literally meant arts (movies, TV shows, etc.), but we like to include other things too.
