CLINICAL STRAND UPDATE: Breathe in the Goodness, Breathe out the Stress

As a clinical director and supervisor, I often find myself benefiting from the same interventions we are teaching and trying out with students, families and schools.  Mindfulness is a great example of the power of a parallel process—when you guide others to take a slow breath in, and hold it, and then to slowly let it out—you, too experience the benefits of slowing down your physiology.  And sitting in my car between meetings, when I remember to breathe deeply—I experience an almost instantaneous release.  I can shake off the stress or residual logistics of my last meeting, and prepare a clean slate for the next one.  Slowing down to breath and reflect is a simple activity, yet it is so easy to forget about this powerful self-care tool.
​

Bringing mindfulness to schools is nothing new to our All In community—many of us are incorporating some elements of mindfulness into our interventions these days.  But just like any habit and routine, it takes practice and sometimes a reminder of the WHY.  In Baltimore, several schools are incorporating mindfulness and yoga into their curriculum with wonderful results.  The following 6 minute video tells a few of these stories:

Here is a video we also shared a few years ago – mindfulness breath explained from a child’s perspective.  Feel free to share!
Have you taken a deep breath today?
