Back to Baseline Movement Regulation Cards

What is the Back to Baseline Movement Regulation Pack?

This pack includes 25 grounding, classroom‑friendly movement cards that help students reset their bodies, release tension, and return to a calm baseline. Each movement is trauma‑informed, neurodivergent‑affirming, and designed to support sensory needs, emotional regulation, and nervous system balance throughout the school day.

These visuals give children predictable, accessible ways to regulate during transitions, after focused work, or anytime their body needs a moment of steadiness. With clear icons, minimal visuals, and teacher‑friendly instructions, this pack supports independence, body awareness, and emotional regulation in any learning environment.
