A gentle guided audio track to help children slow down, feel safer, and regain a sense of control when emotions start to feel too big.
When worry, frustration, anger, or strong feelings arrive fast, children can feel swept along by them — with no idea how to slow things down or find their way back to calm.
Calm the Alarm is a gentle guided audio track designed to help children notice when their emotional alarm system has switched on, and learn what to do next. Using simple breathing exercises, grounding techniques, and child-friendly coping skills, this recording helps children learn how to respond to their feelings rather than being swept away by them.
Perfect for use at home, in school, or during therapy sessions.
This audio track draws on evidence-informed psychological approaches commonly used to support emotional regulation in children, including breathing techniques, grounding strategies, mindfulness skills, and compassionate self-talk. Created by Dr John F Connolly, Clinical Psychologist.
