Nose-Breathing For Kids For Better Academic Processing!

Nose breathing, or traditional Nadi Shodana breathing, can be adapted easily and simply to help kids process and learn better in academics. It literally helps the two brain hemispheres (the left and right) communicate better and helps build a stronger corpus callosum connecting the two better! I use this breathwork at the beginning of each tutoring session- it's great to do and helps kids ground right before starting homework or any other academic task.

Through breathwork and neuroplasticity, we can help create a stronger processing system in children that helps with their academics, focus, and retention of material, as well as boosts self-confidence and the feeling of calm. When we help kids connect to their own bodies and breath, it makes them more present, more mindful, and more confident learners.
