Body Awareness

Your mind and body work together to keep you healthy!

Breathing exercises can be helpful for monitoring emotions.

Practice body awareness with a caregiver, friend, or yourself!

1. Find a space where you can move comfortably.

2. Put your hand over your heart, notice your heartbeat.

3. Jump up and down 15 times!

4. Sit down and take a few deep breaths.

5. Notice your heartbeat again.

6. Breath deeply, notice how your heartbeat starts to slow down.

Modification: If you are unable to jump, do deep stretches while seated in a chair.
