Intentional breathing is the act of using our breath to help us calm down, whether we are upset, angry, scared, or stressed. It is a technique that even young children can master. This book offers children an easy way to learn five different kinds of breathing techniques so that they can begin to take control of their emotional responses and self-soothe in order to feel better in difficult situations. It is also a wonderful way to introduce children to the concept of mindfulness.

This is a perfect-bound (glued) edition of this book, which has the advantage of a printed spine so that it can be found readily on a bookshelf. The book also comes in a saddle-stitched (stapled) edition. (See below.)

This book also comes in a version that is printed with a special dyslexia-friendly font that is easier for some children to read. Additionally, there is an accompanying instructor guidebook to help children implement the strategies they are learning in the student book. (See below.)
