Educator Self-Care Mini Kit

$189.00

We know how hard you work and how few resources there are to help you manage the stress of your job. This is why we designed the “mini”!

It’s intended to provide you much needed stress release and practices to co-regulate with your students.

The “mini” is a field-tested collection of regulation hacks and sensory tools, as well as our guidebook, that are selected to support your regulation. The 7 tools address common areas of the body that hold tension and stress (i.e. neck, shoulders, chest, etc). These tools provide your body with the much needed input often absent in classroom environments.

Explore each tool. The tools have varied purposes, but what’s most important is for you to discover what works for you. Determine which tools impart a felt sense of comfort in YOUR body.

Keep them near you. Use them often. There are three particular body senses associated with regulating your body’s state and shifting your felt sense. They are your proprioceptive, tactile, and vestibular senses. Yes, those are weird words.

Here’s what two of them mean:

  • Your Proprioceptive sense is how you know where the parts of your body are in relation to the rest of your body and your body position. It is primarily driven by receptors in your muscles, joints, and tendons.

  • Your Tactile sense is your sense of touch. There are two kinds of tactile input— light touch and deep pressure. Light touch is typically alerting. Deep pressure, by contrast, often stimulates a calming effect in the body.

In your toolkit, there are several items intended to offer proprioceptive input. Several items will offer both tactile and proprioceptive input.

    • Nee-doh Nice Cube

    • Massage roller ball
