1. Hissing breath: Take a long deep breath through your nose and breathe out through your mouth by making a hissing sound. The exhalation should be longer than the inhalation. The long breath will calm the mind. It can be an excellent way to slow them down mentally and release any tension and anxiety.

Bee s breath can be an excellent way to help create a moment of pause in their mind and release tension from the spine, back and neck.
