Meet Pookie the Panda, a weighted stuffed animal with extra-long arms and paws that hug you back. Pookie helps you stay focused, feel safe, and reduce stress and anxiety. Whether you're working, studying, or winding down, Pookie brings the comfort of a warm hug anytime you need it.
Pookie the Panda uses Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT) a calming technique that applies gentle pressure to the body, similar to the feeling of a hug. This pressure activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for helping you relax, recharge, and feel safe.
When you hug Pookie or let his weighted arms wrap around you, it sends a signal to your brain that says:
"You're safe. You can slow down now."
This physical cue helps:
Whether you’re at your desk, in bed, or on the couch, Pookie provides an instant wave of calm when you need it most.
Pookie is the perfect size to sit on your lap, wrap around your shoulders, or snuggle up with in bed.
Even with weighted arms, Pookie can still be washed easily!
We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for smaller messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently using mild soap and air dry.
Machine washing and harsh chemicals can affect the softness of Pookie's fur.

Pookie helps regulate cortisol (your stress hormone), which can boost focus, improve sleep, and support emotional balance.
Pookie gives gentle, weighted hugs that activate your body’s natural calm response: like a cozy version of a weighted blanket.
The pressure helps shift you out of “fight or flight” and into “rest and relax” mode, reducing stress and anxiety in minutes.
With extra long weighted arms and ultra-soft fur, Pookie gives you that “held and safe” feeling anytime you need comfort or grounding.

Yes! We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for everyday messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently and air dry.
Absolutely. Many people love sleeping with Pookie for nighttime anxiety or insomnia. His weight and softness can help calm your nervous system and promote deeper sleep.
Pookie is designed for young adults. But anyone above the age of 5 can benefit from Pookie! Due to his weight, we don’t recommend him for very young children or pets.
Pookie weighs 1kg / 2.2 lbs, just enough to provide calming pressure without feeling too heavy. The weight is placed on Pookie's arms so he can actually hug you and hold on to you while you work. It’s perfect for hugging while working, relaxing, or sleeping.
Everyone’s nervous system is different. Some people feel relief instantly, while others notice benefits after a few consistent uses. Either way, Pookie is there for you for the long-haul!
