Description : Here is a playful, informal approach to supporting learning in young children through movement, song, verse and story. Nell Smyth has developed The Breathing Circle techniques to help children feel fully grounded in body and mind, develop physical and social confidence, and promote language and literacy skills.
The Breathing Circle offers movements, verses, songs and stories that work directly with the cycle of the natural breath and can be used at home or in the classroom with young children aged from 18 months up to around seven years.
The contents include an overview of the principles and benefits of breathwork; using breathwork to structure and shape a lesson; verses for movement, story and circle time; exercises to support healthy sleep patterns; exercises for refreshing and revitalising teacher and parent.
Here is an essential handbook for early years educators, preschooler parents, and caregivers, as well as storytellers, drama teachers, breathwork teachers and practitioners, and those involved in the many other somatic disciplines.
