Life Ingredients™ wasn’t made for “perfect” students.
It was made for real kids.
Big feelers. Deep thinkers. Quiet ones. Wild ones. Neurodivergent ones.
Kids who don’t always fit the mold — and shouldn’t have to.

Ever told a child to “calm down”… and watched it go terribly?

That’s because kids don’t calm down by command.
They need a practice.
A pathway.
A pause they can actually follow.

That’s where Calm Mind Sessions come in.

We don’t just “teach” emotional intelligence.
We tell stories.
Because research — and experience — shows that kids learn best when their hearts are open.

Stories make the learning stick.
Stories make it feel safe.
Stories help kids see themselves.

If you've ever thought…
“I just want my child to feel confident.”
“I hate yelling, but I don’t know what else to do.”
“I feel like I’m failing at this parenting thing…”

You’re not alone.
You’re not failing.
You just need tools.

We know what it’s like to want to support a child’s emotional growth…
but also feel pulled in a thousand directions.

That’s why we made Life Ingredients™ simple, flexible, and zero-prep.
So it’s not one more thing on your plate — it’s the plate.

So what is Life Ingredients™ exactly?
It’s a self-paced digital library that teaches kids emotional intelligence using storytelling, neuroscience, and breath-based tools.

Every day, we teach adults how to manage stress.
To meditate. To breathe. To journal.
To pause instead of explode.
To slow down before burnout.

But what about the kids?

Kids are growing up fast — but emotionally, they’re not “little adults.”
They’re still learning to name their feelings, manage their energy, and feel safe in their bodies.

But the world is loud. Fast. Overwhelming.
So what happens when we don’t teach emotional intelligence?
