Helping kids to navigate big feelings
Kids live life at full speed – full of energy, adventure, mess and fun. With a big life comes big emotions and big challenges, which often leave kids feeling unstuck, unsafe, unsettled and unsure. These big feelings can be overwhelming and confusing –both for kids and their parents! We know that for most people, calm breathing can help reset their nervous system.
Better breathing, backed by science
Did you know that calm breathing is a key to help ground your child, help performance, help anxiety, help connection and help resilience? Scientific studies have shown that slow, deep breathing has the ability to reduce anxiety, increase confidence and memory, and even grow new brain cells!
