BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO YOUR WORK WITH CHILDREN

In today’s fast-paced world, children face unprecedented levels of stress and stimulation. Breathing Buddies offers a creative and interactive approach to help children harness their natural ability to self-regulate through the simple yet profound practice of conscious breathing.
