KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON Exercises for Kids
W
ith Florida schools out for the rest of the year, moms, dads, and kids have suddenly found themselves in a cozy and possibly chaotic new situation. Children look to their parents to model how to handle such a big change in daily life. Here are some ideas to help adults and kids keep calm and find a sense of inner peace.
MINDFUL LISTENING
Anthony Profeta, Meditation Teacher at Aquarian Dreams, shares that meditative exercises including mindful listening and breathing exercises can help kids relax and focus. Practicing mindfulness can reduce stress and cultivate creativity and learning mindfulness techniques can lead to social, emotional and cognitive benefits. Profeta encourages parents to try this mindful listening exercise by inviting their kid(s) to sit up and close their eyes. Then ring a singing bowl, or a bell. Ask them to listen very carefully, and when they can no longer hear the sound to raise their hand. To practice without a bell ask the children to listen to the sounds around them. Which are closest? Which are far away?
BREATHING
When the body is under stress, breathing can become shallower. Deep breathing helps get more oxygen into the bloodstream and physically helps the body to calm down and lower stress. Stephanie Pereira, owner of Youth Roots Yoga & Wellness and teacher at Tranquility Haven Center shares “My favorite breathing exercise or pranayama is bumblebee breath, sometimes known as sound breath or humming breath.” To try bumblebee breath with kids, find a comfortable seated position or lotus pose. Start by placing thumbs in ears and fingers over eyelids while breathing in and out through the nose. On the out breath make a humming sound. “Slowing the breath will slow down the mind,” says Profeta. “Invite your kid(s) to breathe with you inhaling for five and exhaling for five.”
MEDITATION
