Meet Pebble & Friends

Three little clay friends, three superpowers your kid can borrow on hard days. Made for kids — written for the parents who love them.

The Shake-Off

Pebble

When feelings get too big for a small body, Pebble shakes them out — wiggle by wiggle, until the storm passes.

Sproutling, a sage-green clay sprout character
Belly Breaths

Sproutling

Sproutling grows good things slowly — new foods, new tries, and slow belly breaths that make room to grow.

Dewdrop, an aqua clay dewdrop character
The Quiet

Dewdrop

Dewdrop knows where the quiet lives. She leads the wind-down: dim lights, soft voices, sleep that comes gently.

A note from one tired parent to another

By day, I deliver oxygen equipment to people's homes. By night, I'm a dad doing the same dance you are — the meltdowns in the grocery store, the homework standoffs, the 2 a.m. worries.

I built Vitae because I couldn't find tools that fit our actual life: short enough to use, gentle enough to trust, and honest about what food and small habits can — and can't — do. Everything here started as something my own family needed first.

If it helps your house breathe a little easier, it was worth making.

— The dad behind Vitae Wellness

The Food Guide: your companion at the table

The Reset gives you one gentle food practice a day — but it assumes you already know what to change. The Food Guide answers the next question: what does that actually look like on a plate? Nine pages, no new rules, no overhaul — just real food in realistic portions, matched to each day of your Reset. Frozen and canned produce count. Store brands count. What you already have in your kitchen counts most of all.

Inside the guide

  • The Vitae Plate — half produce, a palm of protein, a fist of carbs, a thumb or two of fat, flavor freely — with four fully worked example plates
  • All seven days, on a plate — a color chart for Day 2, eight carb + protein pairings for Day 3, fiber add-ons for Day 5, use-what-you-have templates for Day 6
  • Gentle swaps — only if you want them, one at a time
  • A one-week shopping list that covers the guide and the Reset's three starter recipes

Free, right here — no email needed. It's also tucked inside the 7-Day Reset download on Gumroad, so the two always travel together.

Three favorite tips from inside

First-thing water. 12–24 oz soon after waking refills the tank after the night and helps your kidneys and liver do their everyday work. Do not force yourself — small steps. Start at 12 oz if that's what's comfortable.

Steady your starch. Cook rice, chill it overnight, reheat the next day — cooling turns some starch into resistant starch, which digests more like fiber. Bread works too: freeze it first, then toast it. Gentle edges, not magic. (The guide carries the food-safety steps for cooled rice, too.)

The 80% pause. Stop eating when you feel about 80% full — hara hachi bu, the Okinawan way. Your stomach and brain take several minutes to communicate; give the signal time to catch up, and most of the time you were already full.

Honest answers

Is it really free?

Yes. The reset is $0+ on Gumroad, which means you can download it for $0 — no card, no trial, no surprise charge. If it helps and you want to leave a few dollars, Gumroad lets you, but it's never expected.

Is this medical advice?

No. Vitae shares food-first education and gentle daily practices. Nothing here diagnoses, treats, or cures anything, and we never suggest changing medications or a child's care plan. When we talk about nutrients, we say "may support" or "studied for" — because that's what's honest.

I'm a parent of an AuDHD kid. Is this for me?

It was made by one. The reset is for you — the parent. A steadier you is the best calm-down tool your kid has. For kid-facing tools, see the Pebble & Friends page.

What happens after the 7 days?

Most parents repeat their favorite days, then step into the 30-Day Whole Living Reset for the full journey — four phases, 12 recipes, and a free calming story included.

What about the food — what do I actually eat?

That's exactly why we made the Food Guide. It rides along free with the Reset (and you can download it right on this page): the Vitae Plate formula, all seven days as real plates, gentle swaps, and a one-week shopping list. No calorie counting, no specialty ingredients — frozen, canned, and store-brand all count.

Loved the free week? Here's the whole month.

The 30-Day Whole Living Reset takes the same gentle rhythm deeper: Nourish, Breathe, Feel, Align — 36 pages and 12 recipes for $27.

Stop the morning chaos.

Focus & Flow is a printable planner designed for ADHD brains — big uncluttered pages, a top-three that fits real life, and no guilt when a day gets skipped. Because it will. That's fine here.

Undated on purpose: start any day of the year, skip a week, and not one page is wasted.

Cover of Focus and Flow, the ADHD planner by Vitae Wellness
Print at home, as many copies as you need. Forever.

Built for the brain you actually have

Most planners are written for people who don't need them. This one was made in a house where mornings involve a missing shoe, a refused breakfast, and a backpack that's somehow already lost.

Top 3, not top 20

Each day asks for three priorities — the ones that matter if nothing else happens. Everything after that is bonus, not failure.

A brain-dump on-ramp

Get the swirl out of your head and onto paper first, then plan from the page instead of from the panic.

An evening reset page

Ten minutes at night sets up tomorrow: bags, clothes, one look at the calendar. Mornings get quieter when nights do the work.

  • 18 pages, undated — print the week you need, when you need it
  • Big, uncluttered layouts — room to write like a human, not a secretary
  • Gentle self-care prompts — water, movement, rest, breathing room
  • Print forever — one purchase, unlimited copies for your household
Focus and Flow printable sticker sheets

Complete the system: the Sticker Bundle

Printable Focus & Flow stickers — priorities, reminders, water, meds, self-care, rest. Stick the day where you can see it.

Tomorrow's morning is being decided tonight.

Ten quiet minutes with Focus & Flow tonight can buy you a calmer 7 a.m. tomorrow. That's the whole pitch — because it works.

For moms to buy · For kids to love

You print it tonight. They calm down with it tomorrow.

Pebble & Friends is Vitae's kids' corner: coloring packs, calming stories, stickers, and clipart built around three little clay friends — and the real skills they teach. The Shake-Off for big feelings. Belly Breaths for growing calm. The Quiet for bedtime.

Every coloring pack includes one calming story free — a taste of the full collection.

How a product makes this page

It has to fit one of our two worlds — a calmer mom, or a steadier kid. It has to be honestly made and fairly priced. And it has to be something we'd hand to a friend at church or in the school pickup line. Two products pass that bar today; the page grows slowly, on purpose.

Meanwhile — grab the free reset

Built by a parent who couldn't find these tools.

So he made them — at the kitchen table, after bedtime, in the margins of a working dad's week.

Vitae Wellness started with a job and a kid. The job: years as a DME driver and technician, walking into homes with oxygen equipment and seeing, up close, how health is really lived — not in clinics, but in kitchens, hallways, and hard nights. The kid: a son with AuDHD (autism + ADHD), whose big feelings and bigger heart rewired everything our family thought we knew about calm.

The wellness world offered two things: expensive programs built for people with free mornings, and advice that treated parents like the problem. Neither fit. So Vitae became the third thing — small, honest, food-first tools that respect both your intelligence and your exhaustion.

Vitae Wellness logo — a gold infinity symbol with a leaf above the word VITAE in gold, on a polished mahogany plaque
Our mark: an infinity loop ending in a leaf. Wellness isn't a 30-day event — it's a rhythm you return to, for life.

The face of Vitae is a pebble, on purpose

You'll never see a polished founder photo here — that's not modesty, it's the point. The encouragement should belong to every parent, so the face belongs to three little friends your kids already trust.

Pebble, a cream clay pebble character with a sage leaf on his head
The Shake-Off

Pebble

The leader. Chosen by two very honest kid critics, Pebble teaches that feelings are weather — they pass through.

Sproutling, a sage-green clay sprout character
Belly Breaths

Sproutling

The grower. Sproutling carries the food-as-medicine heart of Vitae: good things, grown slowly, eaten gladly.

Dewdrop, an aqua clay dewdrop character
The Quiet

Dewdrop

The rester. Dewdrop guards the wind-down — for kids at bedtime, and for moms long after it.

What we stand on

Food first

Before products, plates. Real food is the first tool in every Vitae guide — supplements and shortcuts come second, if at all.

Honest words

We say "may support" and "studied for," never "cures" or "treats." If the evidence is thin, we say so. Trust is the whole business.

Made for real life

Short, printable, forgiving. If a tool needs a free weekend and a silent house, it's not a Vitae tool.

Parents first

A steadier parent is the intervention. Our kids' tools are written for the moms who buy them and the kids who'll love them.

"Wellness tools for real life — made by a parent who understands your struggles."

That's the whole brand in one line. Start with the free week, and welcome to the family.
