Breath
In our breath practice, we focus first on our personal experience and self regulation strategies. We use some essential elements of rhythmic regulation such as our heartbeat, our breath, our body and the rhythms of nature.
"We are truly alive only when the mind is with the body."
- Thich Nhat Hahn
Body
Share music to build community and find ways to move your body with dancing, walking, or whatever you like. We all can learn to be rhythmic when we keep it simple, have patience and have fun!
"Take care of the animal so you can be human."
- The Hippie
The Beat
Grab a drum, move your feet, walk and breathe...whatever you need to do to find the beat. Below are some simple ways to use drums, breathe, movement and conversations to regulate, connect and build community.
"Regulation is a right not a privilege."
- Dr. Bruce Perry
