Grounding Practice Cards, Volume 1: Return to Now

Printable or screen‑friendly version of the Grounding Practice Cards.

Grounding Practice Cards, Volume 1: Return to Now is a calming PDF of 24 cards created to help you settle your body and reconnect with the present moment in under two minutes. Each card offers a simple, practical grounding action followed by a brief reassurance line that supports a steadier inner state. Use the deck when you feel overwhelmed, distracted, tense, or emotionally pulled in too many directions, or use it as a daily ritual to stay anchored and clear.

Inside, you’ll find gentle breath-based practices like slowing the exhale and counting the breath, body-based resets like relaxing the jaw and dropping the shoulders, and sensory grounding prompts like feeling your feet, listening for sound, and touching something solid. The language is intentionally simple and non-forceful, designed to meet you where you are and help your nervous system respond with steadiness. Print and keep the deck on your desk, beside your bed, in your car, or in your bag, and draw one card whenever you need to return to now.
