Emotional intelligence isn’t a one-size-fits-all skill.
So we built Life Ingredients™ to be flexible, affirming, and real.

Wherever your child learns…
however they process…
this program was made to meet them there.

You’ll find:
✨ Multi-sensory tools
✨ Calm visuals
✨ Gentle, culturally inclusive language
✨ No pressure to perform — just invitations to explore

Because all kids deserve the chance to feel safe and emotionally strong — exactly as they are.

We created this program for:
✔️ Home and school
✔️ Traditional and homeschool settings
✔️ Kids with sensory needs, learning differences, and big emotions
✔️ Parents and teachers who need something simple that works

Imagine your child having a go-to ritual when emotions feel too big.
No guesswork. No “what do I say?” stress.
Just press play, breathe, and begin again.

That’s the Calm Mind difference.
And it’s at the heart of Life Ingredients™.

Teachers use them after lunch or recess.
Parents use them before bed.
Some kids press play on their own after a hard day at school.

Because learning to reset isn’t just useful.
It’s powerful.

Each session is short — just a few minutes.
They guide kids through breathing, visualization, and sensory awareness.

It’s not about shutting feelings down.
It’s about coming back to center, gently and skillfully.

The more they practice, the more it sticks.

When kids hear a story that reflects their experience, something shifts.
They feel seen.
They feel safe.
And suddenly, their emotional world becomes something they can name, explore, and navigate.

That’s why we tell stories.
That’s why Life Ingredients works.
July 14, 2025 at 1:40 PM
Every story is paired with a “Calm Mind Session” — a moment to pause, breathe, and feel what the story stirred.

It’s not just entertainment.
It’s science-backed storytelling + self-regulation practice.

One flows into the next — gently, naturally.

In Life Ingredients™, we created two animated guides who lead children through each of the 8 core Ingredients.

They’re curious. Playful. Real.
They mess up. They reset.
They model growth, not perfection.

Kids trust them. And that trust makes the learning land.
July 14, 2025 at 1:40 PM
You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to fix everything.
You just need a path — and a few minutes a day to walk it.

We’re here to walk it with you.
Let’s raise emotionally strong kids, together.

Life Ingredients™ was built for this exact moment.
It gives you a way to connect with your child — through stories, breathwork, and lessons you can both grow from.

Not performative parenting.
Just real tools for real feelings, shared together.
July 13, 2025 at 1:48 PM
We don’t get taught how to guide our children through big emotions.
We get told to “stay calm” while being hit with tantrums, anxiety, and self-doubt — theirs and ours.

The truth is:
Parenting is hard.
Teaching emotional intelligence? Even harder.
July 13, 2025 at 1:48 PM
We built this program for the real world — where mornings are rushed, emotions are big, and your child needs more than advice.

They need practice. Tools. Calm.
You can give them that — without overwhelm.
That’s why Life Ingredients works.
July 12, 2025 at 11:27 AM
No printing. No Pinterest.
Just click and press play.
You can follow along or simply be present.
And because it’s built around real-life moments, it adapts to your rhythm — not the other way around.
July 12, 2025 at 11:27 AM
Each lesson is short (6–12 mins).
You don’t need training or extra materials.
Kids can use it at school, at home, solo, or with you.

Parents use it before school.
Teachers use it after recess.
Some use it at bedtime — to reset the day, together.
July 12, 2025 at 11:27 AM
We built Life Ingredients™ to be the program we wished we had growing up.

Tools for thought. Space for feelings.
A roadmap for inner calm.

And a new way to grow emotionally strong — together.
July 11, 2025 at 10:27 AM
Each lesson is just 6–12 minutes.
It fits into a morning routine, a reset after recess, or bedtime wind-down.

Because emotional learning doesn’t need to be heavy.
It just needs to be intentional — and consistent.
July 11, 2025 at 10:27 AM
Short, soulful lessons. Real-life skills. No prep required.

It includes:
✔️ 150+ mini lessons
✔️ 40 Calm Mind Sessions
✔️ 8 beautifully animated storybooks
✔️ Easy “activator” activities
✔️ Gentle guidance for parents & educators

All designed to help kids thrive — in school, at home, and in life.
July 11, 2025 at 10:27 AM
We believe emotional intelligence isn’t a luxury — it’s a life skill. And it’s never too early to learn.

We’re here to help you raise emotionally strong kids.
Together.
