Process

Your Simple Start with Kickstand Health

When parenting feels like too much, we’ll walk you through a process to help you recover and reconnect to yourself.

1. Say Hello to our Emotion Tool

You’ve found a little pocket of support—let’s explore it together.

Where are you on a 1-10 scale right now?

Or 

  • Peek at the list of feelings (like “Overwhelmed” or “Frustrated”)—they’re here because we’ve been there too.

  • Click one that fits—no pressure, just see what opens up for you.

  • Take a moment —you’re already closer to relief than you think.

2. Choose Your Feeling

Wherever you are is the right place to begin. Trust yourself. 

  • Pick the feeling tugging at you today—it’s okay if it’s messy or loud.

  • Watch three simple tools pop up—no big decisions, just a starting point.

  • Feel free to back out and try another—your comfort sets the pace.

3. Test a Tool That Calls to You

One small try can shift your day—and that’s more than enough.

  • Tap a tool (like “Rebalance or warmth or SIPS”)—they are quick, made for busy moments like yours.

  • Give it a go, even once—success is just feeling it out.

  • Notice anything lighter—a softer breath, a quieter mind? That’s yours to keep.

4. Save It for Later

This tool waits for you—no rush, no guilt, just here when you need it.

  • Add the page to your home screen —it’ll be ready next time.

  • Little by little, this tool becomes your steady ground—build it your way.

  • Add another feeling or tool when you’re ready—days or weeks from now, it’s fine.

5. Return to your day with a little more space.

It’s not about fixing anything. It’s about finding your footing again

  • Spot what helps most—what’s your go-to when the chaos creeps in?
