唞氣救心箱 Calm Down First Aid Box

by Tong Pun Lam, Brian

Calm Down First Aid Box, which is to calm people down and increase patience, laying a solid foundation for rational communication.

In order to improve the intergenerational relationship in Hong Kong, the two generations must first have a chance to communicate rationally. The premise of rational communication is that both parties must calm down. We will use first aid kits when we are injured, but when we are angry or lose control, we also need emotional first aid. The Calm Down First Aid Box allows users to get emotional relief assistance supported by scientific theories through book reading and some small tools. The medium of “book” allows users to control the tempo of reading. The mechanism in the book will make the reader slow down and think. The content of the book is based on the STOPP model of cognitive-behavioral research, guiding readers to calm down and return to rationality. Other small tools stimulate the body and brain through muscles, hearing and smell, allowing users to further relax and increase patience.
