Mr Sloth Healing Series

A calming children’s story to help anxious, overwhelmed children slow down and feel safe

Created by a psychotherapist to support children’s emotional well-being, mindfulness, and self-regulation in a fast-moving world.

 Why this story matters

Many children today are experiencing:

• overstimulation
• emotional overwhelm
• difficulty slowing down
• anxiety during transitions or bedtime

Parents often notice their child is struggling… but feel unsure how to help in a way that truly reaches them.

Children don’t always respond to instructions — but they do respond to stories.

 Introducing Mr Sloth

It turns emotional regulation into something children can understand naturally.
