Hi! Welcome to Raene Day Plans!
I’m a former classroom teacher, a runner, a yoga teacher, and a writer. I have been a reader, dreamer, planner, and creator my whole life.
I'm on a journey of Inner Transformation and Balance, so I am exploring slow productivity, connection with nature, and authentic creativity to build my healthiest mental, emotional, and physical self.
I am rekindling the playful joy and dreamy passions from my youth.
Fumbling to learn new skills. Practicing new rituals of both self-care and magick.
Letting go of as much technology and stressful hurry as I can.
Standing still, wobbling on one foot in tree pose, releasing judgment.
So if you are feeling off-balance, you're not alone. And if you need someone to remind you of your own joyful, dreamy, magickal self, I am here to do just that.
Just visit my YouTube Channel -- and don't forget to Subscribe!
I’ll offer you strategies, insights, practices, and simple hacks to encourage inner balance and harmony.
You’ll find me filling out my planner for the week, setting goals for the year, creating simple projects, and sinking into good literature, while chatting through my thoughts, inspirations, and struggles.
Pop in for an RDP LIVE Reading or Writing project that you can create along with me, or grab the directions / templates to try at a later date. These are fun for all ages, perfect for Bookish crafters, after-school Enrichment activites, tutors, camp leaders, and artsy friends around the world.
And when you are ready to go deeper, check out one of my community or membership groups. I lead a sensory experience journal writing group to help rewire the limbic system, improve vagal tone, and ease chronic feelings of anxiety and imbalance. It's part study hall, part writing club, part meditation practice, and part support group.
Or join the Learning Planner Group -- whether you are leading a classroom of kids, motivating a team of athletes, designing your personal curriculum, or completing your life / work / reading journal, we will keep you company and share ideas and give you an inspiring space to plan for learning.
I look forward to working with you!

1) Free YouTube Community Group
What is the RDP Community Group?
This is where we will all connect for open-to-subscribers YouTube Live (and Replay). You'll get to comment, ask questions, and receive links to freebies.
All you need to do is click "SUBSCRIBE" to RaeneDayPlans, and you're in! (Sometimes it takes up to 24 hours to show up, so be patient!)
We focus on fun, non-techy, glue and scissors projects -- mostly about what we are Reading or ideas for Writing.
These can be relaxing ways to share the books you read, improve your undertanding, or sharpen your writing skills. You can even share them with your classroom, your students, or as an enrichment project for your own kids.
Everything is designed to be creative, calming to the nervous system, and imperfectly original.
Plus YOU get to give your suggestions, tell me what you need, and I'll do my best to make it happen!
2) Sensory Journal Experience Group
What is the RDP Sensory Journal Experience Group?
The Sensory Journal Experience Group is a members-only, YT-LIVE hangout with Raene Day Plans where we study our nervous system, work on inspiring projects, learn sensory meditations, journal and share our questions, ideas, and reflections to develop personal practices for life balance and inner transformation.
In addition to the live group support, you'll receive: resources to use for inspiration and personal focus; live mindfulness events; work-at-your-own pace sensory journal curriculum ; early releases of discounts on partner products, special interviews, and more.
3) Learning Planners Group
What is the RDP Learning Planners Group?
If you are working with curriculum, training programs, tutoring, or any project planning this is our "Plan With Me" YT-LIVE group that will give you inspiration, ideas, and lots of insight into mindfulness, differentiation, old-school and feel-good lesson or project plans. We chat about the pros and cons of pre-tech learning experiences, and explore ways to develop the habits, thinking patterns, and sensorineural pathways that too much tech has stolen from us, our students, or our clients. It's a great way to get your own planning completed, alongside some like-minded friends!
If you want to make an impact on your future and the future of teaching, coaching, training, and learning, we want YOU to be a part of this group!
In addition to the resources and plans shared in our YT-LIVE episodes, you're invited to be part of the Sensory Journal Writing YT-LIVE events too.
4) Personal Learning PD Group
What is the RDP Personal Learning PD Group?
Once a month I bring my Professional Development Courses to the RDP Personal Learning Group so they can develop their own personal or professional learning, without spending hundreds of dollars on PD classes.
As a PD provider for the teachers and administrators of my state, I offer sessions on mindful classrooms, trauma-sensitive instruction, connecting with students, gifted and advanced students, differentiation, and creating an entire school system based on bottom-up processing / mindfulness. These are taught and approved through our state-authorized PD system. But PD is expensive, so many teachers don't get the professional learning they want and need.
This group is intended to provide the instruction & content of my PD courses, for anyone who is interested, so you can apply it to your classroom, your family, your team, or yourself. You won't get the PD Credit, but you will get the majority of the PD CONTENT and KNOWLEDGE that I offer.
As a Bonus, you also can attend any member-only YT-LIVE.
