WHAT'S INSIDE

What's in this play kit

A full kit of wellbeing tools, curated to work together.
Self-Care Journal

Self-Care Journal

A guided journal with a page to fill in at night: what you were thinking, what you actually want, and which of the small things you tried and found helpful. The videos are clear that this is where you find out which habits fit your life.
Self-Care Guidebook

Self-Care Guidebook

For when you want to understand the why behind what you’re doing. Movement, sleep, stretching and meditation, each with what it is does to support you and how to fit it into your every day world.
Self-Care Card Set

Self-Care Card Set

Breathing patterns, stretches and short meditations. Pick one, leave it on the bench, and it is there for you when a minute turns up. Surprisingly simple, and powerful.
Aromatherapy Eye Pillow

Aromatherapy Eye Pillow

A soft green pillow scented with essential oils, to lie across your eyes, block out the light, and bring a sense of peace and relaxation, even if just for a moment. Keep this one beside the bed or even on the side table next to the couch for a mini moment where you can get one.
Magnesium Spray and Roller

Magnesium Spray and Roller

Our Melo magnesium spray is perfect for tired legs and shoulders, plus a small Dream roller with essential oils in it for wrists and temples. Perfect for signalling to your body that it’s time to relax and rest.
Sleep Tea

Sleep Tea

A loose leaf blend from Preppit for the last drink of the day. Sipping this tea before bed encourages mindfulness and allows you to create a peaceful moment of self-care in your evening routine.
Tea Cup and Strainer

Tea Cup and Strainer

A glazed ceramic cup, a steel strainer that sits on top of it, and a small dish for the strainer to drip into afterwards. Something special for you, that you like the look of is something you will get out again, making your sleep tea something you can look forward to in the evenings.
Wooden Hand Massagers

Wooden Hand Massagers

Small, portable tools for tactile grounding and immediate stress relief. These massagers are great for reducing tension and promoting calm, especially during stressful moments throughout your day. Small enough to live in a handbag or a glovebox.
Bath Salts

Bath Salts

Luxurious bath salts infused with essential oils, perfect for a relaxing soak. This self-care tool provides a soothing, restorative experience, helping to alleviate muscle tension and helping you settle.
Colour Pencil Set

Colour Pencil Set

A boxed set of coloured pencils, for doodling in the margins of the journal or colouring something in while you think, or clear your mind at the end of the day.

Why we built it this way

One minute, added to something you already do

One minute, added to something you already do

Nothing in here asks for a spare hour, because you don’t have one. You take one small thing, three slow breaths say, and attach it to something already fixed in your day: waiting on the kettle, sitting at a red light, sitting in the line at school pick up. Habit stacking we call this. And we’ll teach you how in the videos.
The journal asks what you want

The journal asks what you want

A caregiving day is mostly spent answering what other people need, and after a few years of that, nobody is asking you that question. The journal puts it back in front of you every day. Your attention tends to go looking for whatever you have pointed it at, so putting a name to what you want can change what you start noticing, or subconsciously creating.
They pick it up by watching

They pick it up by watching

Children often read the adults around them without being told anything. They can tell when you are super-stressed, and they can tell when you are regulated, and they learn from watching you manage yourself, same way they learn everything else. So the more you can model for them what self care looks like, the more they can learn those skills for their future selves.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PLAY KIT

The videos that come with it

Everything in the kit is ready to use from the day it arrives, so you can start your nourishing sleep tea that very first night. When you want the guidance behind the tools, there is about fifty minutes video there for you. We cover why you run flat by the end of the day, breathing you can do in a minute, how to make one small habit stick, what actually helps you sleep, and how everyday things like carrying the groceries, a warm bath or the music in the car can wake you up or calm you down. There are also short breathing, stretching and strength routines to follow along with. We'll send your invitation to access it all when your kit ships.

WHO THIS PLAY KIT IS FOR

If your own day looks like this

  • By the end of the day I am completely done, and I could not point at one thing that did it.
  • The only time that is mine is after they are asleep, so I stay up for it.
  • When I do get five minutes to myself, I spend it feeling like I should be doing something else.
If you recognise yourself in any of that, this is who we built the kit for.

Who made this

Kait is an OT. She has been working with children and families for nearly 20 years, and she has four kids of her own. This is the only kit in our range that is not for a child. It exists because of something that comes up in the work over and over: an adult who already knows what would help, with no room left to do any of it, and no chance of taking anything new on until that changes. So the kit was kept deliberately small. Ten things, fifty minutes, and nothing in it that needs a clear afternoon. And they are all things you use, because telling yourself to calm down only gets you so far. Our therapy team recorded the videos and wrote the guidebook, the journal and the card set that go with them, so the reading, the writing and the doing are all aimed at the same handful of habits.
