Tools for listening to your body
Free tools to use between sessions, voices from our community, and the books that shaped this work.
Sensations Wheel
Tight, heavy, warm, fluttery, numb, grounded: sensations are the nervous system’s first language. Notice them without adding a story, so your body becomes information, not a problem.
Needs Wheel
Shifts the question from “What’s wrong with me?” to “What might I be needing right now?” Safety, rest, connection, autonomy and support, named with care instead of judgment.
Emotions Wheel
Language beyond “fine”, “stressed” or “overwhelmed”. Choose what fits at your own pace. Naming an emotion can soften its intensity and help your nervous system settle.
