Mindfulness Reset Collection & Companion Guide
Nervous System Regulation Tools for Parents, Teachers, and Caregivers
The Mindfulness Reset Collection is a practical set of regulation tools designed to help adults and children calm the nervous system, build emotional awareness, and develop lifelong self-regulation skills.
This printable card deck and companion guide helps parents, teachers, counselors, and caregivers move from reacting to leading emotional regulation with confidence.
Grounded in social-emotional learning (SEL), nervous system science, and co-regulation research, this resource teaches adults how to regulate first—so they can help children regulate too.
Because emotional regulation doesn’t begin with the child.
It begins with the adult nervous system first.
What Is Included
This printable collection includes 20 regulation cards and a companion guide explaining how each practice supports the nervous system.
The deck includes:
10 Adult Reset Practices
Simple mindfulness and breathing exercises designed to help adults regulate themselves before guiding children.
When adults regulate first, children feel safer and emotional intensity decreases.
5 Co-Regulation Tools
These practices help adults and children regulate together through connection.
Co-regulation helps children experience what calm feels like in the body while an adult models emotional leadership.
5 Child Independent Regulation Skills
These tools help children gradually practice calming strategies on their own as their regulation skills develop.
Companion Guide Included
The Mindfulness Reset Companion Guide explains the science behind each practice so adults understand why the strategies work.
This helps adults move from managing behavior to guiding regulation.
