Break free from spirals. Breathe. Begin again.
1 / 1
You can’t “think” your way out of anxiety — but you can ground through it.
We made Ground Breaking because too many of us were told to “just breathe” when breathing felt impossible. Sometimes, calm doesn’t come from silence — it comes from small, doable actions that remind you you’re safe.These cards were born in therapy rooms where clients struggled to find that first step out of panic. The goal wasn’t perfection — it was presence. To help you stay with yourself, even when it’s hard.Because grounding isn’t about control. It’s about coming home to your body, one moment at a time.
Start small. Stay gentle. That’s where calm begins.1What's inside

2How to use
Pull a card when you notice your thoughts spiraling — before a meeting, after a long day, or during a moment of panic. Follow the prompt exactly as it’s written; most take under two minutes. Notice how your attention shifts from what’s overwhelming to what’s real and immediate.
You can use one card daily or a few throughout the week as part of your self-regulation routine. Keep them on your work desk, by your bed, or in your bag — anywhere calm needs to meet you halfway.
3Why it works
Anxiety often thrives on repetition — the same thought cycling over and over. The Ground Breaking deck disrupts this loop by shifting focus from thinking to doing. Each exercise is drawn from CBT and mindfulness practices that help regulate the nervous system, restore perspective, and activate the senses.
By bringing awareness to your breath, body, and surroundings, these cards ground you in the present — a proven method to calm physiological stress responses. Used consistently, they train your mind to recognize safety and return to emotional balance more easily.

Behind the design
Why we build tools for feelings (not just vibes).
Ground Breaking began in the therapy room. We noticed how often clients struggled with breathing exercises — what was meant to calm them sometimes triggered more anxiety. That’s when we began experimenting with grounding through the senses: sight, touch, movement, breath. Over time, these simple techniques became a staple in our sessions — and eventually, this deck. The cards are the product of years of observing what truly helps when anxiety takes over: small, repeatable actions that remind the body it’s safe. I hope this deck becomes your quiet companion — a reminder that calm is not found; it’s built, one grounded moment at a time.
