Learn three breathing techniques that help kids calm down: dragon breathing, five-finger breathing, and body-scan breathing. Each method shifts focus away from what upset them, letting their body physically relax and regain control.

Different types of deep breathing can really help a child de-escalate. I like these different cards that show different types of breathing techniques that can help a student de-escalate. They have the different steps for things like dragon breathing, five finger breathing, body scans that can show students how to do these techniques. These can really help physically the body de-escalate and take kind of the mind away from what they're upset about.
