Calm Senses Series Ep. 10 - Starfish Breathing

Calm Senses Series Ep. 10 - Starfish Breathing

In this episode, children are guided through a gentle breathing exercise using their hands.

By tracing each finger like a starfish and pairing movement with breath, children practise slow, steady breathing in a simple and visual way.

This creates a rhythm the body can follow, helping to support calm and awareness.

Children can trace, watch, imagine, or simply listen, with full choice in how they participate.

Parent & Teacher information:

This episode is grounded in trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming practice, offering structured, predictable breathing with visual support.

Starfish breathing supports:• breath awareness and control• calming the nervous system• body-based regulation

It can be used:• during moments of overwhelm• before sleep• as part of a daily calming routine• in classrooms or group settings

Children may engage in different ways: tracing, watching, imagining, or resting, and all responses are welcome.
