Inspired by the 5-4-3-2-1 method, by focusing on your senses, you can gently shift your attention away from anxious thoughts and back to the present moment, allowing you to find a sense of calm and reassurance. Check out how it works -https://bit.ly/5sK-howitworks. #groundingmyself #groundingenergy #anxietyrelief

I asked our 16yo daughter to draw us what an anxiety spiral feels like... this beautiful, haunting image is why we created our 5sensesKit!

5sensesKit is all about the senses! As the name suggests, by tapping into your senses we aim to help someone struggling to break anxiety spirals or sensory overload. Going from overwhelming musings or sensations to narrowing your focus to a few specific sensory objects, you can ground yourself in the moment and find a sense of calm.

Hi, I'm Bex, the creator of 5sensesKit. It's been a wild ride in our household over the last eight years as our youngest has struggled with crippling anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and sensory overload. This has forced me to take more than a few deep dives into things that might help. I've realised that we won't know exactly what is happening until our teen turns 18 or possibly older. A therapist told us to put together a sensory kit of things that help our teen, so after scouring the local shops and finding only bright, colourful fidget toys aimed at younger kids, I decided I needed to make a kit I could give my youngest. One that they can take into social situations and be low-key enough that people won't notice how uncomfortable they are. And so, 5sensesKit was created! It's a small kit with tips & tricks that have worked for us, a guide to help you through grounding techniques when you're struggling... I'm not sure about you, but the moment I get emotional everything I've learned flies right out of my head! Plus, objects that help tap into the senses: sight, smell, touch, sound, and taste, which ground you in the moment, out of your own internal struggles. This helps break the spiral enough to get you to breathe and focus on the present.

I truly hope this helps you, and I look forward to hearing some success stories and finding out if anything else works for you.
