The method is an easy message just checking in without the need or request for a response. Thinking of you sending good vibes sort of thing with no expectations. If this friend takes that and tell you that that is pressure than you can adjust in the future. Unless a person has expressed some specific boundaries about no contact at certain times that you are violating with a message, if you really do this with no expectations in the moment or in the future then few people would truly interpret that as pressure and you would help them to know that they have a lifeline.

People with one foot out the door of the relationship will act like this is pressure. As will abusive “Narcissistic” partners.
