Mind Matters Minutes and Me &My Emotions
Resources to use both as facilitators for practice and co-regulation and as participants for practice and
support are Mind Matters Minutes (DibbleInstitute.org/mind-matters-minutes) and Me &My Emotions
(MeandMyEmotions.org).
Mind Matters Minutes is a virtual tool featuring short recordings of the self-soothing exercises used in the
Mind Matters program. Each recording is under 10 minutes and includes a brief introduction to the exercise,
a guided practice, and questions to encourage participant engagement. You may choose to play these
recordings instead of leading the self-soothing exercises from the Toolkit yourself.
Me &My Emotions, based on the content of Mind Matters, is a free, mobile-friendly website designed to
support youth social-emotional learning (SEL) through engaging, interactive lessons. The lessons are meant
to be taught sequentially, with each one building on the previous lesson to reinforce the skills introduced in
Mind Matters. Instructors can access the full list of lessons at MeAndMyEmotions.org/all-lessons, and links
to individual skill-teaching videos are included throughout this manual and the PowerPoint slides. All videos
are also available at Vimeo.com/thedibbleinstitute. You may wish to assign specific Me &My Emotions
lessons to provide additional practice or reinforce optional learning.
