When do I apply doing the Home breath?
The short answer…before the stress!
We used every opportunity to teach children how to use the Home breath. First, we got the kids curious about the invisible bubble around them. Then we showed how playing together can be more fun when we know where we are inside. (See Personal Bubbles Freeze Dance lesson download in Step 2). Finally, we used it to check in with ourselves when we are nervous, upset, or have a difficult time sharing what we are feeling.
Important: When children practice finding Home they must touch where they feel the exhalations end inside their bodies. Ask your children to stay aware of that place inside and let that part of them share or play the games.
