Candle Breaths

Another breathing strategy to help your child calm down when upset, this one is derived from the book Breathe Like a Bear by Kira Willey. 

Pretend you are holding a candle. 

Take a long, slow breath in.

Next, slowly blow the air out toward your candle, but don't blow it out! Just make the flame wiggle a little.

Keep taking long breaths in and slow breaths out for a few more times or however long you feel like.

Finally, on your last breath out, blow out your candle!
