Is clár céimnithe fónaice / litearthachta é 'Mar a Déarfá!' chun líofacht léitheoireachta agus cruinneas scríofa agus litrithe a mhúineadh don chainteoir dúchais Gaeilge.

Dírítear sa chlár ar na fuaimeanna a dhéanann an cainteoir dúchais ina theanga labhartha féin a cheangal lena bhfoirmeacha scríofa.

Dírítear ar dtús ar An Cód Soiléir - nó na 41 bunlitriú do phríomhfhuaimeanna na Gaeilge. Is iad na 41 bunlitriú sin an chéad chéim agus an bhunchloch don léamh agus don scríobh. Leantar le céimeanna eile an chláir ansin (An Cód Doiléir, nó na bealaí eile le príomhfhuaimeanna na Gaeilge a litriú) go dtí go mbaineann foghlaimeoirí amach ardchaighdeán cruinnis i léamh agus i scríobh

na teanga.

Tá os cionn 200 cód litrithe sa Ghaeilge.

Breathwork for Children

Using breathing as a tool for self-soothing with children.
The theme of this month's blog articles has been all about emotional experiences and regulation. In closing this chapter, this blog will focus on using breathwork as a means of promoting self-soothing and regulation for children.

Breathing is not just about taking in enough oxygen to survive and releasing the carbon dioxide that is not needed. An act so closely tied to our very state of survival implies that it is inextricable from our emotional centre and state of being. There is a wealth of research that exists regarding this link and how breathing and emotions have a cyclical relationship. Our emotional state can influence our breathing pattern, which in turn can either heighten or reduce the intensity of what we are feeling. Think about it- when you feel relaxed, your breathing is deep, regular and gentle, however when you are anxious or angry, your breath may feel more choppy, irregular and shallow.

Well then, what is breathwork? Breathwork refers to the act of using breathing exercises as a means of producing a sense of wellness, calm and regulation. And this is something that can easily be done in any setting and is child friendly! In fact, breathwork can be immensely beneficial as a self-soothing tool for children, as it is an action that they can control with their own bodies, encouraging them to become more attuned to themselves.

Breathing is connected to the nervous system, which is responsible for regulating our responses to our internal and external environments. When we are in a relaxed state, our breathing is being regulated by the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for our rest and relaxation state of being.

However, when we feel anxious, afraid or uncomfortable, our breathing is being influenced by the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the fight-flight-freeze reaction to stress. This redirects our body's entire system of functioning into focusing solely on survival, shutting down higher order functions such as thought, reason and emotional regulation.

This is why is is difficult to "talk" a child out of a stressed or anxious state- it is important for children to first return to feeling safe before anything else can be processed. Breathwork offers one such tool.

Here are 3 exercises that may be helpful to you and your child as a means of soothing and returning to a place of feeling safe. As with any other practice, it is useful to practice these exercises first when you and your child are in a calm and regulated state to become familiar with how that feels. This will encourage them to become comfortable with using breathwork as a way to self-soothe.

Also called diaphragmatic breathing, this is simply the act of deepening your breath by fully utilising the abdominal muscles- expanding the belly while breathing in and flattening the belly while breathing out.

Make a game out of it! You and your little one can lie down on a soft and comfortable surface next to each other. Place a book on your bellies and make a game out of trying to balance the book while breathing. Each of you take a deep breath in through the nose, seeing how big you can fill out your belly within your own levels of comfort. Breathe out fully through the nose, pushing the air out with your belly, feeling the book rise and fall with each breath.

2. Resonant Breathing

This breathing exercise reduces the rate of breathing by encouraging you to take 5 full breaths per minute by inhaling and exhaling at a count of 5. This is helpful during times of heightened emotion to help your little one come down from a tantrum or anxious period.

Sit somewhere quiet and comfortable with legs crossed and body upright or supported. Take a deep inhale through the nose, counting to 5. Exhale slowly through the mouth for a count of 5. Continue this pattern until it comes naturally and your child feels relaxed.

3. Visualisation Breathing

This breathing exercise is more suitable for children who are slightly older, and is helpful with reducing anxious or worried feelings and encouraging emotional release.

Sit or lie down somewhere quiet and safe, with eyes closed. As you inhale deeply and slowly, imagine yourself breathing in a warm stream of light in their favourite colour. Hold this breath for a count of 3.

As you exhale through the mouth, they visualise yourself blowing out a thick black smoke (representing the anxiety, worry, anger etc.). With each exhale, imagine that the breath becomes lighter and lighter, until eventually you are breathing out clear, clean air.

This exercise is aimed at encouraging slow regulation and calming, and so assure your child that there is no need to rush through the exercise in 3 breath cycles if they need a little longer to soothe themselves.

Breathwork offers a gentle and easy way to soothe, but also a beautiful way to connect and bond with your little one by just being and breathing.

With joy and light,

Carla

Breathing and Yoga

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Breathing exercises are a brilliant tool to use to help with focus, managing stress, and boosting overall mental health in children. They not only play a significant role in yoga, but also in everyday life.

When children learn the art of mindful breathing through different techniques, they acquire a powerful tool that helps in regulating their emotions and responses to the environment around them, promoting a sense of peace and tranquillity. It also aids in improving concentration and brings about a refreshing surge of energy, and can even be beneficial when it comes to managing respiratory issues like asthma as well!
Teaching kids fun and imaginative breathing exercises can be an effective way to introduce them to the world of mindfulness and self-regulation.
When you learn that your breath is linked to your state, you have it in your power to keep a steady head whenever you need. 'Take a deep breath' is wonderful and simple wisdom, but it can be harder than you think when you are feeling a little challenged - one of the reasons why we practice it in yoga!

I use breathing techniques regularly in our Yoga Adventures and Mindfulness Zen Den series! So, we wanted to share a collection of our favourite fun breathing exercises for kids that will captivate their imagination and encourage them to embrace the practice wholeheartedly.

1. Hot Air Balloon Breathing

Invite the kids to sit comfortably, and imagine inflating a massive, colourful hot air balloon. As they take a deep breath in through their noses, they cup their hands around their mouths. As they exhale slowly, encourage them to expand their hands outward, visualising the growing hot air balloon. Let them sway gently from side to side, admiring the balloon soaring gracefully in the sky. This exercise not only fuels their imagination but also instils a sense of calm and relaxation.

If you want to see the hot air balloon in action within one of our yoga adventures, then check out Squish the Fish!

And, if a hot air balloon isn't quite enough to capture your little one's imagination, then try and imagine blowing up a jigglypuff!

2. Dragon Fire Breaths

Transform the kids into mighty dragons! Seated with fingers interlaced underneath the chin, they'll inhale deeply, lifting their elbows. Exhaling with a powerful 'hah!' sound, envisioning a dragon breathing fire, they will simultaneously lower their elbows. This breathing exercise is exhilarating, infusing them with courage and energy. This makes it a fantastic choice for helping us feel brave when we might be nervous or pepped up when we're a bit tired.

I use Dragon Fire Breaths in Parsnip and Pedro the Penguin, and in our upcoming episode Enzo the Bee!

3. Volcano Breathing

Try this brilliant breathing exercise for kids! It's called the Trolls Volcano Breathing Exercise - and it's a great way to get kids to focus on their breaths.

In this breathing exercise for kids, we do one big volcano breath, followed by short sharp breaths. This gets children thinking about the difference between short and deep breathing - and they can use the Volcano technique whenever they feel like they need to take a big inhale and exhale to relax!

4. Tumble Dryer Whirls

If you're looking for something a bit more upbeat, then with the tumble dryer whirls breathing exercise, kids sit in a cross-legged position and simulate a tumble dryer with creative hand movements and breath coordination. Spinning their pointed index fingers in front of their mouths, they take long, satisfying exhales, creating a swishy sound that captivates their attention, promoting relaxation and focus.

You can see this breathing technique in action in our Washing Machine Song Yoga Disco!

5. Chilled Tongue Tube

Some people can curl the sides of their tongue up, others can't... it's a genetic thing! If you can, curl up the sides and make your tongue into a tube or straw. Then with your tube-like tongue sticking out a little bit, inhale and suck the air in over your tongue. Exhale slowly through your nose. This has a wonderful cooling effect and refreshes the throat. Very cleansing!

This refreshing breathing exercise invites kids to cool down and cleanse their bodies and minds. If curling the tongue is challenging, a big toothy grin and sucking the air in sharply works wonders too!

When we put this one into practice at Cosmic Kids, we ask kids to imagine shaping their tongue into a straw and taking a big drink!

6. Darth Vader Breathing

Sometimes it's all about taking something that kids love and recognise, and applying it to a breathing exercise! That's what we've done in our Star Wars Yoga Adventure.

Darth Vader has a distinctive breathing pattern that anyone can replicate. By getting kids to focus on how Darth Vader breathes and copying his breaths while making that iconic noise, we're getting kids to pay attention to their breathing!

7. Buzzing Bumble Bee Breaths

Known as Bhramari in Pranayama, this practice transports kids into a world buzzing with bumblebees. Seated comfortably, kids will inhale through their noses and exhale with a humming sound, resembling a bumblebee. Placing fingers in their ears enhances the vibration, providing a calming and soothing effect that envelops them in a cocoon of peace and tranquillity.

8. Petal Breathing

Petal breathing is where we upturn our palms and make the shape of a flower with our hand. Then, we open our fingers like the petals of a flower as we breathe in, and close our fingers with our thumb as we breathe out.

In the clip below, Jaime uses the petal breathing exercise! Pip is one of My Little Pony's most-loved characters - and she's full of confidence! So using petal breathing, we try to take some of that confidence in ourselves - getting kids to feel positively about themselves as well as calming them down with a breathing exercise!

Bonus: Ocean Waves

Let the kids immerse themselves in the soothing sounds of the ocean. Encourage them to take a deep breath in, and as they exhale, make a soft 'whooshing' sound, resembling the ocean waves. This auditory experience is incredibly calming, helping kids wash away stress and immerse themselves in a sea of relaxation.

Inculcating these imaginative and joyful breathing exercises in children's routines will equip them with invaluable tools to navigate the world with a balanced mind and a resilient spirit. If you have them a try, then please let us know how you got on!

Inside: A child therapist's favorite ways to help kids learn to take a deep breath, including quick explanations and videos of deep breathing techniques.
Have you ever told a kid to take a deep breath, and then they start hyperventilating? Or they breathe in, but don't breathe out?
Sometimes, kids may need a little more help to figure out how to properly take a deep breath.
First, let's review why deep breathing matters.

When you are calm, your body is in what is known as "rest and digest" mode. Your breathing is normal, your muscles are relaxed, and your heart rate is normal. It's how you would be when you're watching a show and relaxing.

But then suddenly, a dinosaur is chasing you!!

When you experience a stressful event (like an unexpected dinosaur in your living room), your body automatically goes into what is known as "flight, fight or freeze" mode. Your heart rate increases, your stomach stops digestion, and your breathing becomes more shallow.

The goal of calming exercises is to get yourself from "flight, fight or freeze" mode back to "rest and digest" mode. Deep breathing helps get more oxygen into your bloodstream, opening up your capillaries. It has a physical effect on your body to help you calm down and lower stress.

So deep breathing does make a big difference for kids. But how can we teach them to take a deep breath properly?
Here are some of my favorite ways to introduce deep breathing! Quick note: The breathing we want kids to do is deep belly breaths, not shallow chest breaths. When they breathe in, their belly should expand, and when they breathe out, their belly should contract.
Use bubbles

Blowing gently to create bubbles is a good way to be playful and breathe deeply. Kids have to blow carefully and slowly to make the bubbles, which is a major reason why I like using it to help kids take deep breaths.

Use a stuffed animal to practice deep breathing

Have your child lay down on their back and put a stuffed animal on their belly. Have them breathe in and move the stuffed animal up, then breathe out and bring the stuffed animal back down. This helps teach kids to use their belly to take big deep breaths. Another alternative is to use a weighted stuffed animal.

Use a pinwheel

Kids can practice breathing out slowly or more quickly, using the speed of the pinwheel as a measure. Then they can figure out which way works and feels best for them.

Use a Feather

Get some colored feathers and pick out one feather to use. It could be a color that they love or one that makes them feel calm. Breathe in and hold it for a count of 3, then breathe out going up on one side of the feather and down the other side.

Hoberman Sphere

Breathe in and expand the sphere, breathe out and push the sphere back in (this mirrors what should be happening to their belly) - Watch the video on YouTube!

DIY Crafts

Make a craft using half a paper plate, crepe paper or ribbons. Have kids blow the crepe paper or ribbons as they take deep breaths.

Materials Needed:

1. Paper plate - cut in half
2. crepe paper - cut into 6" - 8" strips, cut in half
3. yarn or string
4. any other embellishments to make the creature (use what you have on hand)

Attach the crepe paper to the flat bottom of the paper plate. Attach yarn/string to the top center of the curved part of the paper plate as a hanger.Have kids decorate the paper plate any way they want, as a monster, or a creature, or with stickers.

To Use: hang up the creature and have kids blow on the crepe paper to get it to move.

Using Your Hand to Take a Deep Breath aka Mountain Breathing

Put up one hand, palm facing out and fingers spread apart. Place the index finger of your other hand at the base of your thumb and breathe in while you move your finger up one side of your thumb. Move your finger down the other side of your thumb and breathe out. Do the same thing with the remaining four fingers, and take deep breaths in and out as you move your finger. After you've reached the second side of your pinky finger, you'll have done 5 complete deep breaths.

You can also do this with a close friend or trusted adult. Have them spread their hand out and use your finger to trace their hand and do deep breaths. Or do the opposite: spread your hand out and have them use their finger and trace yours. You can do deep breaths together!

Hands to Shoulders

Sometimes you breathe from your chest instead of your belly, but it's hard to notice. This is an easy way to figure out if you are moving your chest or your belly when you're breathing. While sitting or standing, put your hands down by your sides. Then bend your arms at your elbows and place them on the front of your shoulders. Try taking a deep breath. If your shoulders are moving a lot, focus more on taking breaths using your belly.

Drama activities: Drama provides active learning situations that explore human relationships, behaviour and events. Through drama, children can express their present feelings, understanding and knowledge and are led to new feelings, new understanding and new knowledge. Using drama as a methodology in SPHE can help to heighten self-esteem and self-confidence by providing opportunities for children to take risks and to experiment with their own ideas. Through the activities children are given a sense of control over their own lives as they learn how to make decisions, solve problems and devise solutions in a safe, non-threatening situation. Through drama, children are also helped to make sense of the world around them and to begin to understand themselves and their own behaviour in relation to the behaviour of others.

The following are examples of dramatic activity that can take place in pairs, and in small or large groups

The approaches and methodologies for SPHE, outlined in the SPHE teacher guidelines on pp 54-99 are an excellent reference for teachers to support them in the implementation of active learning methodologies in SPHE lessons

The following exemplars illustrate how various aspects of the SPHE content can be explored using a variety of drama strategies:

Drama activities for Infant classes outlined on p60

Drama activities for first and second classes outlined on p61

Drama activities for third and fourth classes outlined on p62

Drama activities for fifth and sixth classes outlined on p63 and p64
