Relief is like when you finally find your favorite toy after looking for it all day. You feel a big sigh of happiness because something that was bothering you is now all better. It’s like a warm hug for your feelings.
Imagine you are carrying a heavy backpack full of books, and then you get to take it off. That light, happy feeling you get when the weight is gone is what relief feels like. It’s like when you take a deep breath, and everything feels okay again.
Think of relief as when you are thirsty and finally get a drink of water. Your body feels refreshed and happy. It’s like a little celebration inside you because something you needed has been taken care of. It’s the feeling of being safe and comfortable again.
