Pain Happens. Suffering Doesn’t Have To : Skills Bookmark
This 2" x 9.5" bookmark is more than a page marker. It’s a reminder that while pain is part of being human, suffering isn’t inevitable.
The front features the grounding affirmation:
“Pain happens. Suffering doesn’t have to.”
On the back, a practical skills map offers quick reminders of coping and regulation tools you can turn to when emotions feel overwhelming.
Slip it into your journal, planner, or favourite book for support that’s always within reach.
