Children often feel something happening in their bodies before they have the words to explain it. Bella the Therapy Dog helps make those experiences easier to notice, understand, and talk about.

We use four simple “energy colors” to help kids tune in to what’s going on inside:

💙 Blue Energy — Low & Slow💚 Green Energy — Calm & Ready💛 Yellow Energy — Fast & Rising❤️ Red Energy — Very Big Feelings

🐾 All energy levels are okay. All feelings are okay.Notice. Understand. Choose what helps.

Title:Bella’s 4 Steps to Help Kids Understand Their Feelings

Body:Children often feel something in their bodies before they have the words to explain it. Bella the Therapy Dog teaches four simple steps kids can use again and again:

  1. 🔍 Notice Your CluesWhat is your body telling you? (Tummy, heart, muscles, breathing, thoughts.)

  2. 🔋 Check Your EnergyWhat color is your energy right now—Blue, Green, Yellow, or Red?

  3. ❤️ Identify Your FeelingsCan you name the feeling? (Sad, calm, excited, mad, worried, etc.)

  4. 🧰 Choose a ToolWhat might help? A break, a hug, a drink of water, a fidget, deep breaths, talking to a grown‑up, or another calming strategy.

The goal is not to make every child calm or make difficult feelings disappear. The goal is to help children understand what their bodies are telling them, name what they are feeling, and choose something that may help.
