Fidgets for Focus and Anxiety Relief

Fidget toys aren’t just for kids! Adults can also benefit from them as an aid to improve focus and to reduce anxiety. This section includes a range of fidgets that are quiet and discrete, and can easily be carried in a pocket or kept on a desk at work.

In addition, check out our category for Thumb Stones which also make great fidgets.

Fidgeting is our body’s way of releasing restless energy. Fidgeting can help self soothe, calm the mind and improve focus.

Fidgeting with jewellery, a thumb stone or a toy can distract from, and diminish the intensity of, worries.

Fidget tools have also been used to treat bad habits such as nail biting, or addictions such as smoking. Touching the fidget replaces the behaviour that is being corrected. Playing with it keeps the hands and mind busy until the urge passes.

Fidgets can also be used during meditation to focus the mind and eliminate distractions.
