In this video I walk you through a super simple breathing exercise that you can teach to the children or young people in your care (or that you can use yourself). It’s a summary of the ‘finger breathing’ or ‘take five’ breathing exercise you might have used elsewhere. You could use this video in class and try it out in realtime, or you can learn the technique and then teach it to your kids. Let me know how you get on and leave a comment with suggestions for other techniques you’d like me to share in a future video.
Here is a link to the original box breathing video: https://youtu.be/JYytiS0ymZg — I hope you find this video helpful.
