Breathe With Me (& Sam)

Come and breathe with me!! Join me as we do a check-in and some breathing for 5 minutes or less! Lets ground by checking our BBEEMS; Body, Breathing, Energy, Emotions, Mind, and Spirit. This can be helpful anytime you need to take a quick break and remind yourself that YOU CAN SELF-REGULATE and you can bring your "high bbeems" back down to "low bbeems". Breathe with me today!!
