Description
Rooted Calm gives you a simple system for steadiness when life spikes. Four chapters. 400 concise affirmations. One clear breath per line.
Inside
- Grief — gentlest lines for heavy days
- Anger — de-escalation and boundary cues
- Resilience — values, small wins, daily micro-steps
- Boundaries — short scripts you can say or text
How to use
- Choose one theme for the week.
- Read 3–5 lines aloud.
- Breathe 4 in / 6 out as you read.
- End with one action: set a boundary, send one message, take one step.
Why it helps
- Brief self-affirmations can support problem-solving under pressure.
- Routines increase openness to helpful messages and small, meaningful behavior change.
- Pairing words with slow breathing supports regulation and return to steadiness.
Use it when
- Grief surges after a memory.
- Anger rises before a reply.
- Focus slips mid-project.
- A boundary needs clear words.
Sample affirmations
Grief: “I let today be gentler.” “I take this breath and stay.”
Anger: “I lower my voice and hold the line.” “I pause before I act.”
Resilience: “I take the smallest next step.” “I log one win.”
Boundaries: “I’m not available for that.” “I’ll reply tomorrow.”
For activists, caregivers, organizers, teachers, students, clinicians, and anyone who wants a repeatable way to return to calm.
