At the Rainbow Planet Connection we are here to help you as a teacher, child counsellor or parent!
We realize that many children can exhibit restlessness and lack of concentration.
It’s difficult to either teach or parent children when they are not receptive.
If we can teach children to relax and be able to put themselves into a much calmer state then we will be in a much better position to help them with both learning and behaviour.
I would like to introduce you to our first E-book on ‘Refocusing and calming activities for children.
Please read below:
There is a lot of wisdom in the old saying, ‘TAKE A FEW DEEP BREATHS’.
This Module has been developed to help children to refocus and calm their energy using breathing exercises. It helps them to become more aware of their breathing patterns and teaches them how to breathe in a deeper more relaxed way. Encouraging full, deep breaths can also be a powerful way to promote release of the energy linked in with feelings, which are locked in the body. It can help to set the energy in motion (e-motion).
Many adults and children, only breathe into the top part of their chest. Shallow breathing is one of the body’s ways of controlling and suppressing emotions and excitement.
Feelings of grief, sadness and fear are often held in the chest. Some of the exercises also teach them how to release pent up emotions using breathing techniques.
- Develop an awareness of their breathing, and how it affects their energy and emotional state.
- Learn how to release pent up emotional energy by breathing it out, using visualization exercises.
- Learn how to use deep breathing for refocusing, calming and balancing their energy.
- Use deep breathing techniques so that they are more receptive to learning, more focused and less scattered.
- Be aware of how feelings such as anxiety and fear can cause shallow breathing and how peaceful, calm and more relaxed feelings are linked with deeper breathing.
- Understand how breathing is affected by external situations and experiences, including environmental factors and other people’s emotions

Other activities are offered which are based on breathing exercises and inner body work. This involves looking inside the body to find out where the feeling or hurt is and then breathing it and/or doing other exercises to express and release the feeling.
