Naming a feeling is the first regulation skill. Our emotions and feelings collection puts the vocabulary on the wall — emotion wheels, feelings charts, and “I feel” prompts — so that children, students, and clients have language at their fingertips when the body is moving faster than the mind.
Why feelings charts work
Decades of affective neuroscience — including work popularized by psychiatrist Dan Siegel as "name it to tame it" — show that putting language to an emotion engages prefrontal circuits and softens limbic reactivity. A feelings chart is not decoration; it is a literacy tool that supports regulation by giving the user words.
What is in this collection
- Emotion wheels — based on Plutchik and other widely taught models, in age-appropriate visuals.
- Feelings charts — from simple 8-feeling kindergarten charts to richer 30+ feeling adult charts.
- "I feel..." prompts — sentence starters for therapy, classroom, and family use.
- Body-feelings maps — where emotions show up physically (chest tightness, stomach knot, jaw clench).

Frequently asked questions
Are these posters a substitute for therapy?
No. LOLUIS prints in this collection are educational and decorative; they are not a clinical intervention or a substitute for professional mental-health diagnosis or treatment. They are designed to support work that you, your client, or your student is already doing with a qualified provider. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (US Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or visit 988lifeline.org.
What is the difference between an emotion wheel and a feelings chart?
Functionally similar — both help with naming. Emotion wheels (Plutchik-style) show how core emotions cluster and intensify outward. Feelings charts list more granular vocabulary in a flat grid, often grouped by happy/sad/scared/angry families.
Do you have Spanish versions?
Yes — see our Spanish Therapy collection for Spanish-language emotion wheels and feelings charts.
How long will the colors last?
Our archival pigment inks on 200 gsm matte paper are rated to remain vibrant for 100+ years under indoor lighting and out of direct sunlight. Frame behind UV-filtering glass for additional protection in rooms with strong natural light.
How do I hang prints without a frame?
Many customers use removable poster tape, washi tape, or 3M Command strips along the edges. Our 200 gsm paper is heavyweight enough to lay flat against most walls without curling.
