So, today we are going to do some mindfulness breathing. And because we are in the park we are going to use the breath of the bees.
We are going to take our hands and put our middle fingers together and put those fingers on our belly button and then get your tongue and put in front of your two front teeth. And if you don't have your two front teeth then just put it where they would be. We're going to breathe into our hands, into our belly, and then we are going to buzz like a bee. Zzzz. All the way out, big long breathe. And then close your eyes and see if you can feel the buzz in your body. Breathing normally and just see if you can feel the buzz. Hmmm Can you feel it?
Now we've done the Mummy bee, let's do the baby bee. So, hands on your tummy and let's breathe into our belly. And buzz like little baby bee. Zzzz. All the way out. Then close your eyes and see if you can feel the buzz in your head, behind your eyes, in your mouth, in your throat. Just breathe normally and feel baby bee buzzing in your head.
And then we are going to take our hands onto our belly again, middle fingers together on the belly button, big breath into your belly and this time we are going to do Daddy bee. So, Zzzz. Daddy bee has a long breathe. Zzzz all the way out. And close your eyes and see if you can feel Daddy bee in your chest, in your throat. Maybe you can feel Daddy bee in your tummy? Breathing in and out. Feel the gentle buzz. All the bees in your body.
That was nice. So you can do that breathing technique when you're worried, or when you can't sit still or when you can't sleep. Just buzz like a bee and listen and feel your body and relax.
