conversations by structuring activities in three areas (breathing exercises, rhythm routines, and drawing/ writing) and offering opportunities for children to successfully socially engage through these structured activities in a small group format. The activities can be presented to a child/teen individually, in a small group, or a classroom context. Breathe! Rock! Draw! Addresses three essential patterns emerging from brain research: over-responsiveness of the limbic system (Breathe!); recalibration of the body (Rock!); and understanding of the environment (Draw!). Using brain science and focusing on both the inner (sensations, images, feelings, and thoughts) and outer worlds (location, safety of that environment) of the child, strategies are thoughtfully introduced to promote self-regulation, positive connection, and ultimately academic and social readiness to succeed.
