Set My Feelings Free
Book •
Set My Feelings Free by Jon Fogel is a children's book that introduces playful regulation games designed to teach kids how to manage big emotions.
Fogel adapts therapeutic grounding and polyvagal techniques into kid-friendly activities—like color-finding, smelling a rose, and short dance parties—to interrupt meltdowns and build self-regulation.
The book emphasizes practice through play so children internalize calming strategies before intense emotions take over.
It offers parents simple scripts and games to use in common situations like nightmares, tantrums, and sensory overwhelm.
A practical resource for caregivers, it focuses on proactive, enjoyable tools rather than punitive responses.
