Try this breathing exercise with your kids to calm anxiety and panic on the spot! ⁠ ⁠ 🐡 PURSED-LIP BREATHING 🐡⁠ Extending and adding resistance to your exhale stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, triggering the relaxation response. In other words, pursed-lip breathing will calm an overactive nervous system quickly!⁠ ⁠ Benefits of Pursed Lip Breathing:⁠ ⁠ ➡️ slows the pace of the breath⁠ ➡️ reduces stress and anxiety⁠ ➡️ controls shortness of breath⁠ ➡️ increases oxygen levels⁠ ➡️ can offset a panic attack⁠ ➡️ calms the mind and body⁠ ⁠ ⁠ How to do it:⁠ ⁠ 1. Stand or sit comfortably with a straight spine and relaxed neck & shoulders⁠ ⁠ 2. Inhale slowly through your nose for two counts, keeping your mouth closed. ⁠ ⁠ 3. "purse" your lips as if you were going to whistle or gently blow out a candle.⁠ ⁠ 4. Exhale slowly and gently through your pursed lips while counting to four. ⁠ ⁠ Pursed lip breathing reminders:⁠ ⁠ 🔑 Practice regularly so that your body learns a healthy stress response⁠ ⁠ 🔑 Don't force the air out on the exhale ⁠ ⁠ 🔑 Exhale for at least twice as long as the inhale ⁠ ⁠ 🔑 Breathe light, slow and deep, expanding a relaxed belly on the inhale⁠ ⁠ Give this one a try and tell us what you think in the comments!⁠ ⁠ #pursedlipbreathing #calmingtechniquesforkids #calmingtechniquesforchildren #deepbreathing #deepbreathingforkids #calmdowncorner #breathingexercisesforkids #breathingtechnique #dailymindfulness #breatheasy #wellnesscommunity #stressreducer #stresstips #stressbusters #stressreliver #stressless #mouthbreathing #consciousbreathing #positiveparentingtips #earlychildhooddevelopment #nervoussystem #bebuddy #mntherapist #kidsanxiety #breathingcoach

You want to help your kids with anxiety. You really do. ⁠ ⁠ But there are SO many tips out there. How do you know where to start?⁠ ⁠ Here's how these little guys can help with your child's anxiety:⁠ ⁠ ⁠STEP 1️⃣: MIND AWARENESS⁠ ⁠ Before you can help alleviate anxiety, help your children understand where it's coming from and why.⁠ ⁠ This can be done through talk therapy with a professional child psychologist or you can start with journaling. ⁠ ⁠ Have them write down how they're feeling, why they're feeling that way, and ways they think they can feel better.⁠ ⁠ STEP 2️⃣: BODY AWARENESS⁠ ⁠ Your breath is your superpower. You just have to learn how to use it. ⁠ ⁠ This is where the BE Buddy comes in. We hold a lot of tension in our bodies because of anxiety. ⁠ ⁠ Your kids can place the BE Buddy on their heads to fix posture, lay it on their tummies to correct their belly breathing, or simply use it as an eye pillow to calm their mind and body.⁠ ⁠ STEP 3️⃣: BUILD A ROUTINE⁠ ⁠ Sometimes the most simple things in life are the most effective. ⁠ ⁠ Just 10 minutes a day can do the trick. have your kids spend 5 minutes journaling and 5 minutes with their BE Buddy EVERY DAY for a week straight. ⁠ ⁠ At the end of those 7 days, see how their journal entries change from Day 1 to Day 7!⁠ ⁠ 🧡 For the month of December, I'm giving my website buyers:⁠ ⁠ 💸 15% OFF (use code: Buddy15 at checkout)⁠ 📬 FREE shipping!⁠ 🎁 plus a special bonus gift!⁠

Inhale. Exhale. Which one do you focus on?⁠ ⁠ Typically, it's easier for us to inhale than it is to exhale. The reason for this is that exhaling fully uses more energy and muscles. ⁠Also, our inhale will only be as good as our exhale because old stale air will remain in our lungs without a strong exhale, leaving less space for the clean, fresh air to enter. ⁠ ⁠ Think about when you try to blow up a balloon. Does it always seem a little difficult? If so, you need to work on your LONG exhales.⁠ ⁠ Long exhales help us:⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Feel calm and relaxed more quickly⁠ 2️⃣ Reduce stress and anxiety⁠ 3️⃣ Release physical tension⁠ 4️⃣ Boost lung health⁠ ⁠ If you want these benefits, practice your long exhales! Try it with a balloon, bubbles, or a feather!⁠ ⁠ 🧡 For the month of December, I'm giving my website buyers a special bonus gift bag with tools to help you with your long exhales. You also get:⁠ ⁠ 💸 15% OFF (use code: Buddy15 at checkout)⁠ 📬 FREE shipping!⁠ ⁠ #longexhale
