Meet the Calm Buddi Turtle, a pocket-sized anxiety-relief companion made from 100% recycled post-consumer plastic.
Created by Renee Taylor - then a 20-year-old Australian, who personally struggled with anxiety, depression, an eating disorder, and the challenges of being autistic. Renee drew inspiration from her fondness for turtles and her need for a calming device to navigate life's tough moments. Encouraged by psychologists and counsellors, Renee successfully crowdfunded the Calm Buddi Turtle in partnership with a Sydney-based company dedicated to reducing plastic waste and defying the one-way path into landfill.
Calm Buddi Turtles feature:
Soothing curves and traceable edges
Silky-smooth underside for rubbing
Spiky inner cavity to help with grounding and harm minimisation
Shell pattern for added sensory input
Flip open-shut shell for extra fidgeting options
Keyring attachment for on-the-go comfort
By carrying the Calm Buddi Turtle with you, you'll have a constant companion to help navigate overwhelming situations and find calm in your pocket!
