Coping Skills for Adults: Deep Breathing Strategies

It’s been a while since I recorded a solo episode so here goes! During my mini break I was thinking; what can I do to support educators, counselors, families and parents with my podcast? And from that I felt inspired to do a mini series on coping skills for adults! I thought it’s a good time of year to start this series with a new school year approaching. It’s such a stressful and overwhelming time and I want to help you with it. The topics I cover in this episode are:flight, fight or freeze mode and the connection to breathingHow deep breathing can help you focustwo strategies that you can usewhere I've seen deep breathing used recently on tvWant to explore your coping skills?
