As a UX researcher turned mental wellness guide, I’ve learned that games aren’t just about wins—they’re mirrors. In this reflection, I share how playing 'Flaming Rhino Path' became a ritual of self-compassion, where every spin carried the weight of emotional release. Through rhythm, restraint, and small victories, I found peace not in jackpots but in presence. This is not a guide to winning—it’s a story about learning to sit with uncertainty and still feel whole.
