Breathe with Me : Using Breath to Look after My Tinana Hinengaro and Wairua

This book provides simple meditative breathing exercises for children and everyone to use at home, school or anywhere. It encourages the use of Maori stories (purakau) aligned to Te Ao Māori principles to engage and connect with children to help them calm their breath while experiencing different feelings/emotions throughout the day. Your breath is a taonga (treasured gift and tool) that you can use anytime to calm yourself. Breathing is easy to do and can help relax your mind, body and spirit. You can be on your way to a happy day.

This is a great addition to your morning, afternoon or evening meditative quiet time routine. Easy to incorporate with Zones of Regulation, Alert Program, Social Thinking, and other social-emotional curricula.
