How to regress (AGERE)?

🧸 1. Create a Safe Space

Find a private, quiet, and comfortable place.

Use soft lighting, cozy blankets, and items that feel safe.

If you have a caregiver (CG), let them know you're regressing. (If possible! some littles may be nonverbal <3)

🎨 2. Gather Comfort Items (Optional but Helpful)

Stuffies/plushies

Blankets or pacifiers

Sippy cups or bottles

Snacks (like applesauce, juice boxes, goldfish crackers)

Toys, coloring books, or sensory items

🎧 3. Choose Comforting Activities

Watch cartoons or kids’ movies

Color or play with toys

Listen to lullabies or soft music

Nap or cuddle with a stuffed animal

Use kids' apps or games

Talk in a childlike voice if it helps

🫧 4. Let Go of Adult Worries

Try to mentally "put away" responsibilities

Use affirmations like: "I am safe." "I don’t have to worry right now." "It’s okay to be small."

🛑 5. Set Limits

Set a timer if you have things to do later

Avoid regressing in unsafe or inappropriate environments

Practice self-care after regressing — drink water, reflect gently, and ease back into your usual mindset

Optional: Journaling or Memory Triggers

Some find it helpful to keep a regression journal or make a playlist of comforting songs, shows, or smells that help trigger the regressed mindset.

⚠️ Important Notes

Please keep an eye on yourself; keep safe when regressing.

Remind yourself: “It’s okay to need comfort.” There’s no shame in wanting to feel little or cared for.

You don’t have to “act like a child” — regression is about your internal experience, not outward behavior.

Everyone's regression looks different; there is no wrong or right way to regress.

Trust Life?

When you tap into the symbolic power of an archetype, you’re tapping into a universal resource of unlimited information about human characteristics and behaviour.

Recently, I came across the term, trust life, so I’m thinking, what is that supposed to mean? What are they talking about? This reads like more-fluff-soul-stuff to me. Reducing complex, vague and convoluted ideas and concepts into something that people can recognise, relate to and utilise is what I do. I wouldn’t be a teacher and a coach if I didn’t. So I start to reflect on the meaning of trust…

PICK A CARD: What obstacles you will have to face

Hello and welcome to this new post of mine! In here I will give you a reading on what obstacles you’ll have to face in the future. I hope you guys enjoy and find this interesting!

Pile 1:

You will have to overcome financial difficulties. There will be a moment in your life in which, in order to achieve what you wish to achieve, you need more money than you in that moment possess. You will need to work hard and get through that moment with every cent that you have. This is something that is very near onto your path, and not something many of you will be able to afford. It will take a good couple of years for you to come into the certain stability that you need in order to overcome it, but it is something that is doable, something achievable.

Pile 2:

You will have issues with your family in some form of way. Whether that is because you want to go on a path they refuse to led you on, or support you on, or because they wish to have a certain control over you that they will not have for long. The relationship with your parents in specific will be rough for a while, and it will be for you to decide if you want to follow their lead or do what your heart truly desires. It is something hard, but for many it is something needed to happen. That relationship will stabilize eventually, and even if you believe you will never speak to them again, you most likely will eventually. It might just take a while.

Pile 3:

You will have a lot on your plate at some point in the semi-near future. There will be many places and people in your life that need your utmost support, and balancing out your energy levels will be difficult, especially given you want to help and please everyone that means something to you. Make sure to really find that balance and base what you can give on what you have. You cannot give more energy to others, if you have none left for yourself. Finding that balance will be what you have to learn, and don’t be too hard on yourself if it seems to take longer than expected. You will find it, you will master it, and you will be able to listen to yourself and your body better after this obstacles has been bypassed.

But don't forget who you really are. And I'm not talking about your so-called real name. All names are made up by someone else, even the one your parents gave you. You know who you really are. When you're alone at night, looking up at the stars, or maybe lying in your bed in total darkness, you know that nameless person inside you.

♡ WEEKEND RESET

CLEAN YOUR SURROUNDINGS. take some time out of your weekend to clean and organize everything around you. there is nothing better than starting a new week with everything in its place, softener-scented bedding and a fragrant bedroom, right? so make sure to move your furniture around and clean every space between them. don’t forget to change your bedsheets and put a nice fabric perfume on it. 💌

PRACTICE A FEW MINUTES OF YOGA. weekends are for relaxing, just like a reset day is meant to be a selfcare day, so don’t try to do any tiring exercise to end up exhausting your body. your health requires you to keep moving, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take a break and go easy on yourself for a few days; try to do some calm and relaxing yoga to stretch your body — specially once you wake up and before going to sleep. these 5~10 minutes can make a big difference.

DO A HAIR OR FACIAL MASK. or both, if you have enough time to spend on taking care of yourself. get prepared for this new successful week by treating your body like your own temple and being gentle with yourself. use your favorite selfcare products and have the perfect spa day, acting like the princess you are! there’s nothing more energy boosting and truly relaxing as getting your entire body all clean, soft and with a heavenly smell. ♡

TAKE AN EVERYTHING SHOWER. adding to the prior topics – once you finish moving around and decluttering your space, it’s time to fully relax and give yourself some princess treatment. exfoliate your body, use your favorite liquid soap to scrub your skin with, wash your hair and shave your body (only if that’s something you’re comfortable with! definitely not necessary if otherwise).

FOCUS ON YOUR SELFCARE. after showering, use some body oil and body lotion with your favorite fragrance. do your skincare, dry your hair and use some hair oil too to get it all shiny and soft. deodorant, perfume, body splash – go out and about with your products! don’t be afraid of “wasting” them just because you’re using it to stay at home and relax. you deserve to smell good and feel like a princess at any time, without any special occasion or an excuse.

HEAL YOUR INNER CHILD. to wrap it up and finish your sunday, learn to simply relax and get comfortable with your own company. get yourself your favorite snacks, a warm blanket, your pet (if you own one) or a plushie to snuggle with and choose any comfort show/movie/cartoon you’d like to watch again. it can be anything from your childhood or simply a cozy and nostalgic media. the only rule here is that you do not choose anything with angst or with any bad feelings! you want to RELAX and feel happy with yourself. pick the cutest or funniest thing you can find and just have fun. ♡

BONUS: PLAN AHEAD. not entirely necessary for a weekend reset, but it would be nice to start your new week with everything already planned and organized, right? so pick up a planner/your notes app and write down everything you want to achieve. you can also make a list of all the things you wish it would happen in your life and start manifesting them :~) you can accomplish anything if you put your body, mind and soul into it!

ALL I'M SAYING, IS THAT FATHERHOOD COULD HAVE HEALED STANLEY JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE. WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS SCENARIO????? Like, imagine if he saw some of his traits in his kid. Traits that would have got him yelled at by his father. How would he handle it himself? What would happen if his kid reached the age where got kicked out? Do you think he would cry himself to sleep and wonder how could anyone throw their kid out like nothing for a mistake? How would he view things from a father's perspective? Would he handle certain things with patience even HE has, unlike Filbrick? Speaking of Filbrick, as a dad, would he hold grudges against him? Would he realize that his father's way of parenting was actually rather flawed? Would he come to terms with the fact that this wasn't "rough love" and that his father was, in fact, a dick? As a dad, do you think he'd forgive Filbrick for the things he did? Wow, sorry for rambling. It's almost as if I'm not writing a fic where I'm planning to explore these things somewhere in the future, haha.
