⇒ How To Play ⇐

You will need:

☞    1 ‐ 2  six‐sided dice

☞    pen and paper

Whenever  you  think about the game, or whenever you notice your‐
self getting stressed, or every thirty minutes (whichever happens
first), roll 2d6.  Read them left to right, the first number  be‐
ing  the  tens  digit and the second number being the ones digit.
For example, if you rolled a 2 and a 3, that’s  a  23.   Look  up
your  number on the tables below and do as instructed.  Repeat as
many times as you like.  When finished, write 1 ‐ 3 sentences  in
your journal about how you feel in this moment.

TIP: You  can  also just pick your favorite thing(s) from the ta‐
     bles below and just do that.
