We are delighted to share with you these simple effective techniques for helping children deal with both physical and emotional problems and discomforts. You will be pleased to know   how easy it is to do these exercises of "special breathing" and natural visualization.

These types of techniques are currently being taught to children of all ages to increase their ability to handle stress, illness, fear, and sadness. They also lessen the negative effects ofunexpressed anger, frustration, and the sense of loss which results from loss of a parent through divorce or death, loss of the child's health and energy, loss of time with a primary caregiver, or many other losses which children experience.

Young children have a wonderful ability to be in touch with their own bodies. Because of this innate gift, most children will be able to give all the information you need to help them with the relaxation and visualization exercises presented here.

The benefits resulting from learning these techniques will be far-reaching and lifelong. A child who learns healthy ways of dealing with stress and emotional distress will feel more in control of his or her life. Learning these simple tools with their special role model, will empower a child to continue to effectively handle stress through the ages and stages of childhood, adolescence, and throughout their adult lives.

Adults who learn these techniques along with children, have an opportunity for positive bonding with those children. These valuable tools can be tailored to help adults deal with their own stresses and distresses and provide an environment that results in wellness.
