Our Story: From Anxiety to Nervous System Regulation
For years, I thought I was just anxious. That's what my diagnosis said. Generalized Anxiety Disorder. So I did what you do — therapy, medication, all the things that help you manage.
And they did help. But I was still waking up tense, reacting to everything, feeling like my body was always waiting for the other shoe to drop.
How I Discovered Nervous System Regulation
Then I became a foster parent. During training, they taught us about the nervous system — how trauma lives in the body, how kids need co-regulation to feel safe, how their behavior isn't the problem, it's the signal.
And I sat there thinking: wait, this is me. This is what's happening in my body.
I started learning everything I could. Polyvagal theory, somatic experiencing, why our bodies get stuck in fight-or-flight and how to actually get them out. Not just calm down in the moment, but retrain the patterns that keep us revved up.
It changed everything.
What Nervous System Healing Actually Looks Like
Not overnight. Not like flipping a switch. But slowly, my body started to remember what safe feels like. I could sleep. I could breathe without my chest feeling tight. I stopped living like everything was an emergency. It's the exact opposite of the on-demand lives we live now, but there's no fast-tracking meaningful, lasting, drug-free change in the nervous system.
Here's what I realized: we have all these tools for kids to regulate. Weighted blankets, swings, sensory toys. But adults? We get told to meditate and take bubble baths.
That's not enough. We need actual nervous system support that fits into our lives. That doesn't look like we raided the pediatric occupational therapist's office.
Nervous System Tools Designed for Adult Lives
So I started curating and designing them. Products that look like they belong in your home but do the work of regulation. A weighted pillow that looks more like designer decor than a therapeutic device. Weighted bears that use luxe materials and give us child-like nostalgia without looking like we raided the kids toy aisle. A diffuser that's so beautiful, you'll want one in every room. Tools that help your nervous system downshift when life won't stop coming at you.
That's For the Cubs.
Support for Overstimulated, Burned Out Adults
We're not here to sell you self-care. We're here because we know what it's like to be overstimulated, tapped out, running on fumes, holding it together while falling apart inside. We know you don't need another thing to do — you need support that actually works.
This is for the people who are tired of being everyone's support system, but having nothing for ourselves. Who know something has to change but don't have the bandwidth to figure out what. Who just need their bodies to feel peace again.
Your nervous system is doing exactly what it was designed to do under chronic stress — and we can help it do something different. Something that serves you, for easier days and more restful nights.
Welcome. We're really glad you're here.
