How it works
Two ears, one button
No screen, no app, nothing to unlock — a child can run the whole thing themselves.
-
Long-press to wake it
The bottom button turns Calming Pal on and off. That is the only setup there is.
-
Left ear, right ear
Long-press the left ear to move through the five mindfulness exercises, the right ear for the eight nature sounds. Short-press either for volume.
-
Set how long
A short press on the bottom button sets 30 minutes, 60 minutes, or always on.
Rechargeable, pocket-sized, and quiet enough for a shared bedroom.
What is actually inside
Mindfulness
Five exercises, written with a specialist
Made with The Mindfulness Teacher, whose practices are used by families worldwide. Each one is short, simple and guided out loud.
- Rainbow Relaxation and Belly Breathing
- Body Scanner and Thought Bubbles
- Snowy Sensations for winding down
Sounds
Eight real places to fall asleep to
Nature recordings rather than synthetic loops — rain in a courtyard, a stream in a Kyoto garden, a fire in a cabin.
- White noise for newborn-style naps
- Rain, fire, ocean and forest
- Volume set from the ears
Home and school
Calm corners, quiet time, big feelings
Teachers use it to run a five-minute reset for a whole group; at home it lives on the nightstand.
- Phone-free, so no screen goes into the room
- Works for one child or a circle of them
- Travels in a coat pocket
Which Pal?
Sound, breath or sleep?
The three little Pals do different jobs. Plenty of families end up with more than one.

Meet Kyle
The koala who went looking for a new tree
Kyle’s eucalyptus forest dried up, so he set off across Breathing Land to find a new home — and found a family of friends instead.
Before it arrives
Guides & free tools
Free, no sign-up. The same ideas the Pal is built on, in case you want to start tonight.
Parent questions
Is there an app or a screen?
Neither. Everything lives on the device, so no phone has to come into the bedroom at bedtime.
Who wrote the mindfulness exercises?
They were made with The Mindfulness Teacher, whose practices are used by families and schools worldwide.
Can it play all night?
Yes — choose always on, or set a 30- or 60-minute timer so it fades out once they are asleep.
Does it work for a whole class?
Teachers use it for a five-minute reset with a group. For a big room you may want two, or pair it with Breathing Pals in the calm corner.
Shipping and returns?
Free US shipping over $35, delivery in 3–7 days, and 30 days to change your mind.
Pal It Forward
Every order helps us send Pals to classrooms that ask for a calm corner. Know a teacher who could use one?
