This is an Episodic show. You can listen to it in any order, but episode one is always a great place to start.

Full Episode description

Seahorses are seriously interesting creatures! Learn more about these fish as we breathe, move, and relax together. 

A core part of Peace Out is social-emotional learning. Today we talk about how we can check in with our family and friends during this challenging time. 

We also introduce Alternate Nostril Breathing, a pranayama (yogic breathing) practice that has a lot of benefits. As we are explaining it over audio only here, we will do a simplified version of the hand movement to keep things simple. I hope I’ve explained it clearly in the episode, but you may want to take a look at our resources to get the visual explanation of the concept. 

If you and your children are interested, I’ve included a couple of YouTube video links showing the proper hand movement and also another simpler version for kids. 

Before you listen, it might be a good idea to make sure there are no stuffy noses and wash hands as we will be touching our face during this exercise. Then wash hands afterwards too.

Stay well and take care, everyone.
