Back to Back Breathing expands kids' awareness of others, and can be very calming. It's a safe, comfortable way to introduce most kids to partner poses. It's also a sweet way to connect for a parent and child!
How to:
Sit up as tall as you can, back to back with a partner. Take a few deep breaths in and out on your own.
Now see if you can feel your partner’s breathing, and notice how it’s different from yours. Is your partner breathing more slowly than you are? Or faster than you are? It doesn't matter at all, just notice what it feels like.
If you want to, start to match the rhythm of your breath with your partner’s breath: breathe in at the same time, and breathe out at the same time.
Do this as long as you want!
