- [00:00:00.141](upbeat music)
- [00:00:10.260]Using an activity like the breath star is important
- [00:00:12.570]because it gives the preschoolers a tool
- [00:00:14.820]to be able to calm their bodies.
- [00:00:16.800]As we know, when oxygen is inhaled
- [00:00:19.216]and it goes to the brain,
- [00:00:20.730]it literally calms the entire body down.
- [00:00:23.370]It helps us focus.
- [00:00:24.750]It helps us think clearly.
- [00:00:26.460]And it helps us be able to process what's going on
- [00:00:28.980]inside of us so that we can move on the next step,
- [00:00:31.650]which is identifying what it is
- [00:00:33.750]that caused that strong emotion.
- [00:00:35.430]And then eventually finding the solution
- [00:00:38.340]to that problem and teaching preschoolers
- [00:00:40.560]how to be able to find those solutions on their own.
- [00:00:43.170]So the breath star gives them five big breaths of time
- [00:00:47.280]to be able to just calm whatever strong emotion is
- [00:00:49.830]that they have, and then get to a place
- [00:00:52.632]where they can actually focus on how to heal.
- [00:00:56.533](upbeat music)
- [00:00:59.509]Everybody, put your hand up like this.
- [00:01:01.860]I need you to take this finger real quick.
- [00:01:03.690]Before we use this finger for the breath star,
- [00:01:05.880]I want you to use this finger and touch your brain.
- [00:01:08.670]Now this is a quiet activity.
- [00:01:10.020]Tell your brain, say brain, let's focus.
- [00:01:14.430]Antonia, say brain, let's focus.
- [00:01:17.197]Brain, let's focus.
- [00:01:18.150]Say I am important.
- [00:01:21.000]My body is important.
- [00:01:24.960]I can control my feelings.
- [00:01:28.260]Take a deep breath in
- [00:01:29.400]and take your finger and trace the breath star.
- [00:01:32.340]We're gonna take five breaths
- [00:01:33.840]because we have five star points.
- [00:01:36.360]Ready?
- [00:01:37.193]Go.
- [00:01:38.103](inhaling deeply)
- [00:01:38.936]Sometimes you can close your eyes.
- [00:01:40.744](exhaling)
- [00:01:42.450]Breathe in all the way into your tummies.
- [00:01:45.141](inhaling deeply)
- [00:01:47.376](exhaling)
- [00:01:48.300]That's two, keep going.
- [00:01:50.437](inhaling deeply)
- [00:01:52.691]Close your eyes and think about how good this is feeling
- [00:01:55.170]and calming your body down.
- [00:01:57.300]Deep breath in.
- [00:01:58.693](inhaling deeply)
- [00:02:00.360]Blow it out.
- [00:02:01.428](exhaling)
- [00:02:02.340]We have one more star point.
- [00:02:04.766](inhaling deeply)
- [00:02:06.540]Blow it out.
- [00:02:07.877](exhaling)
- [00:02:08.954]I want you to put your hands on your knees,
- [00:02:11.280]have your eyes closed.
- [00:02:12.540]And this is the last breath we're gonna take.
- [00:02:15.690]Breathe in.
- [00:02:16.670](inhaling deeply)
- [00:02:19.133]And blow out all the yuckiness, sadness,
- [00:02:22.260]angry mess, and open your eyes.
- [00:02:26.610]Now feel, feel your body.
- [00:02:29.576]I feel the same way, Cora.
- [00:02:31.334](giggling)
- [00:02:32.280]I feel the same way.
- [00:02:33.240]I am so relaxed, I could lay down.
- [00:02:35.601](upbeat music)
