Hā Tool for Organisations
A Practical Regulation Tool for Staff, Clients, and Whānau
Support your staff, clients, and whānau with a practical breathing taonga designed to calm the body and restore clarity under pressure.
The Hā Tool is a breathing tool informed by mātauranga Māori and nervous system science. Inspired by the form of taonga pūoro, it helps slow the breath, settle activation, and support emotional regulation in real time.
When people are under pressure, breathing often becomes short and shallow. The Hā Tool gently extends the breath and slows the exhale, helping signal safety to the nervous system and restore clearer, steadier responses.
Small, quiet, and easy to use, it can be used throughout the day without interrupting work or conversations.
How Organisations Use the Hā Tool
Organisations across Aotearoa integrate the Hā Tool to support:
• stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm
• habit change such as smoking cessation, emotional eating, or other addictive behaviours
• respiratory health including asthma, COPD, and shallow breathing
• staff wellbeing initiatives and leadership development
• client support between appointments
• youth resilience and wellbeing programmes
• community and whānau wellbeing initiatives
• programme completion and milestones
Many organisations provide the tools to staff as part of wellbeing initiatives, while others offer them to clients to support regulation between appointments.
Who This Is For
Hā Tools are commonly used by organisations working in environments where people regularly experience stress or emotional pressure.
This includes:
• Māori health providers and kaupapa Māori organisations
• social services and community organisations
• mental health and addiction services
• schools and education providers
• youth and whānau support services
• healthcare and frontline teams
The tool provides a simple way for people to regulate their breathing during moments of stress throughout the day.
