What's on
There’s bound to be giggles as we play with clown shoes, a giant parachute and flying soft toys, a poo emoji cushion, loud party blowers, light feathers and more.
Once we’ve cracked the code, we will practise 5 important breathing exercises for key moments in a child’s day:
🫁- smiling breath; for gratitude
🫁- taking control breath; a brain reset button
🫁- box breath; for focus
🫁- holding your breath; for healthier blood biochemistry
🫁- relaxing breath; for snoozing like a sloth
With high levels of anxiety and school absenteeism, teaching kids that they have an influence over their breathing – which in turn alters how they can handle their emotions – is vital.
Before mindfulness can be effective, we have to work with the nervous system first and address breathing patterns.
(This session follows a “Storytime with Susie Sloth“ session at 1pm)
