Living kidney donation represents a viable alternative for patients with advanced renal disease, significantly reducing wait times and offering better long-term results compared to deceased donor transplants. ^[1] The Cleveland Clinic explains the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique as a mindfulness exercise that uses the five senses to direct attention toward the present moment. ^[2] Dr. Neerja Agrawal stated that carefully selected donors usually continue to lead healthy and active lives after the donation. ^[3] Psychosocial evaluations are a fundamental component of the process to confirm that the decision is voluntary, the person understands the risks and benefits, and they have realistic expectations. ^[4] The Cleveland Clinic's Dr. Neerja Agrawal, a specialist in Nephrology and Transplant Nephrology, explained that a healthy person can voluntarily donate one of their two kidneys and continue to lead a full life with the remaining organ. ^[5] The Cleveland Clinic advises that the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique can be used when difficult emotions arise but should not be viewed as a substitute for professional help. ^[6] The Cleveland Clinic recommends seeking help from a qualified healthcare professional if anxiety, distress, or other symptoms are persistent or affecting everyday life. ^[7] The exercise follows a sequence where an individual notices five things they can see, four things they can feel, three things they can hear, two things they can smell, and one thing they can taste. ^[8]
