Steady Mornings — A Family System for School Anxiety, Avoidance & Refusal

Steady Mornings is a family system for school anxiety, avoidance, and refusal, for families with children ages 5 to 18.

It starts with the Four Winds Finder, a short scored questionnaire (16 statements) that helps you work out which of the four reasons is behind your child's hard mornings: Heavy Wind (the place itself feels overwhelming), Watched Wind (being seen feels hard), Tether Wind (the pull back home), or Easier Wind (home feels better). Each wind has a matching plan, so you start with the plan that fits your child, not a generic morning routine.

What is inside (54 pages, printable PDF, US Letter):

• The Four Winds Finder and all four plans
• The Morning Map and the Steady Morning Plan
• The Pocket Card, the Return Ladder, and a two-week tracker
• A Letter to the School template

Print at 100% (Actual Size) on US Letter paper.
