🌙 Spotify Playlists

🌌 For Adults & Teens

Somewhere Softer
For the part of you that aches for something gentler - where lyrics shimmer and time slows down just enough.

This Is Me Trying
For when you’re trying your best and it still doesn’t feel like enough. A playlist for invisible effort, quiet spirals, and holding on.

Life Gets To Feel Like Yours
You’ve been carrying so much for so long. Now you’re allowed to want more - softness, space, truth. A playlist for stepping out of survival mode and into something softer.

The Space I Needed (Inner Child)
A playlist for the younger version of you - full of longing, softness, and hope. You were never the problem.

The Quiet Kind of Brave
Songs for the moments you stop pretending. For the spirals, the softness; the quiet rebellion of being your full self - no mask, no apologies.

Cautious Joy
Sometimes happiness shows up - but it’s hard to trust it. For anyone trying their best to feel good… and wondering why it still hurts.

Still Not Understood
For the quiet pain of being misunderstood, and the hope that maybe, in music, you’ll feel seen.

This Is What Heavy Feels Like
Music for moments that hurt quietly, deeply, and all at once.

Growing Pains
You didn’t ask to grow up. But here you are - figuring it out anyway. A little lost, a little older, and trying to make it mean something.

Music can be a powerful way to feel understood, calm the nervous system, or express emotions that are hard to put into words. We’ve curated playlists for different moods, moments, and ages - each one crafted with care and intention. Explore in your own time, and let the songs meet you where you are.

🪐 For Kids

Being Me Is Enough (Kids)
A gentle playlist for little ones who need a soft place to land. You don’t have to be anything but you.

Soft & Safe (Kids)
For winding down, softening overstimulated senses, and feeling safe.

Exactly As I Am (Kids)
Joyful songs for little ones learning to love who they are. Made for singing, dancing, and being exactly you.

Keep Holding On (Kids)
For kids who feel like giving up. This playlist won’t pretend things aren’t hard – but it’s here to remind you that you’re strong, brave, and can get through this.

Sensory Calm
Like being underwater – no words, no sharp edges, just gentle sounds and soft sensory space.

Looking In

For those who feel like outsiders, watching life happen through the glass.

Songs That Stayed Up With Us

Born in our Master of Psychology nights - songs to hold you when you’re tired, feeling too much, or just trying to make it through.

It’s Meant to Feel That Way

For the ache that’s hard to name, but fully real. You’re not too much. Your feelings are meant to be honoured.

I Remember Everything

For the moments you realise you’ve been wronged - by people, by systems, or by silence where support should have been. A playlist that holds the anger and grief of injustice, and reminds you it’s okay to feel it.

🌌 Self-Care & Reflection Tools

We’re currently building a collection of creative self-care tools (think handouts, journaling prompts, and regulation ideas). Until they’re ready, you can find some of our favourites in our Tools & Words Instagram story highlight.
