Does any of this sound familiar?
You're about to snap at your kids—again. You know what you should do, but in the moment it escapes you. You don’t need a complete life overhaul—You just need something that helps, right when it’s needed most
You try to stay calm—but you’re snapping over small things.
Stress builds silently in the background, then spills out in the moments that matter most.
You know breathing would help—but it never happens in the moment.
You get stuck in your head, and then the overwhelm takes over.
You’re holding it together for everyone —but feel disconnected inside.
There’s no time to pause, reset, or even catch your breath.
You are not alone.
Life is full, and it's normal for overwhelm to creep up and take over —but you don’t have to stay stuck in it.
The Toolkit was created for moms just like you—busy, thoughtful, doing their best—who sometimes feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or on edge.
Inside, you’ll find the same quick strategies that have helped others catch their breath, feel more in control, and finally create space for calm—even in the middle of a busy day.
I created this Toolkit because I needed these tools myself—when I was overwhelmed and about to lose it.
Imagine knowing exactly what to do — right when stress hits.
Instead of reacting, you have a tool ready.
Instead of losing control, you feel steady.
Instead of carrying the stress all day, you know how to shift it and let it go.

Hey!
I’m Maria—a psychologist, mindfulness-based coach, and mum who knows firsthand what it’s like to be holding everything together while feeling stretched thin.
I created this Toolkit to offer the kind of support I wish I had during my most overwhelmed seasons: no fluff, just clear, science-backed tools that actually work—right when you need them.
Here’s What Makes This Toolkit Different
Designed for Real Life.
No 30-minute meditations or complicated frameworks—just quick tools you can use when you’re overstimulated, short on time, and don’t want to “push through” anymore.
Backed by Scientific Research
Everything inside is informed by psychology, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation—delivered in a way that’s supportive, not overwhelming.
It’s not about fixing you.
This isn’t about changing who you are—it’s about having practical tools to come back to yourself, even when things feel overwhelming or out of control.
The Toolkit is a good fit for you if:
-
You’re juggling a lot — work, home, family — and want quick tools to reset in real time.
-
You're open to trying practical techniques to calm down fast when you're triggered.
-
You want to know which technique to use when—so you're not guessing in the moment.
-
You don’t have hours to spare and need support that fits into real life.
The Toolkit isn’t a good fit for you if:
-
You’re looking for deep therapy, long meditations, or a big lifestyle overhaul.
-
You want complex theory without actionable steps.
-
You’re not open to trying simple tools or short practices.
-
You expect to feel better without putting anything into practice.
