Free resources library
Designed for the way your mind works
A collection of thoughtful PDF guides for neurodivergent adults seeking more clarity, more rest, and less overwhelm. Each one is five pages, written plainly, and free to read, print and pass on.
Grounding
Coming back to the present
For when the room feels unreal, or your thoughts are running ahead of you.
Breathing
Calmer, right now
The longer out-breath, and four other things to try when your chest is tight.
Big Feelings
When emotions feel too big
For anger, grief and panic that arrive before the words for them do.
Sensory Overload
When the world is too loud
Noise, light and crowds stacking up, and what brings the volume down.
Social Energy
Why people are tiring
The cost of a day around others, and how to plan around it.
Winding Down
A gentler way into rest
The hour before bed, when sleep won't be argued into arriving.
Two versions of each: the colour one to read on a screen, and a printer-friendly one that keeps the colours but drops the solid fills, so it uses less ink.
