Grounding Stones

The 5,4,3,2,1 Grounding Technique is a quick way to calm and ease anxious moments. It works by heightening your senses to the environment around you and helps to re-focus from any negative/anxious thoughts and these stones act as a visual reminder, along with the postcard and dice. For an extra way of using the technique, you shake the dice each morning and this will be your focus of the day.

It can be very difficult for children to focus when they are receiving a lot of sensory input from what is around them. This technique may help with their attention and where to focus their energy. When children are used to this technique, it can help alleviate any anxious moments and they begin to feel more in control (which can help as a confidence booster, especially when in other/new environments).

As with any new technique, these are better practised when children's minds are calm. A free worksheet is also included, which can not only help with ideas, but to make recall easier when it is most needed.

The stones (made from recycled glass) are designed by myself using a decoupage technique.
