Release The Balloon

We are living in extremely stressful times. Release the Balloon allows your child to let go of their worries and learn a tool they can use at any time. It quiets the mind and allows the child to relax. It lessens the mind of obsessive thinking and allows angst to float away with the balloons. It is a wonderful sleep aid or to help with focus during the school day. The track is repetitive as we have found that playing on repeat allows for deeper relaxation.
