RILEY'S STORY
Riley’s Remarkable Roller Coaster Ride is here to teach you how to calm your body down using the Rollercoaster Breath. This mindfulness-based activity incorporates a body scan, visual imagery, and deep breathing. It’s an easy-to-implement strategy to help the reader calm their body and reconnect with who they are—unlocking their own special magic.
The Rollercoaster Breath is a useful tool for parents to use at bedtime, for teachers to use before quiet time, for counselors to use to reduce anxiety and build social skills, for coaches to use to teach focus, body awareness, and resilience, and for yoga instructors to use to teach breathing techniques—the list is endless!
Everyone has magic inside them! Help the kids in your life unlock theirs!
